In 1992,

In 1994, their partnership incorporated under the name

in Great Basin Internet Services (GBIS), Northern Nevada's Largest
Independent internet service provider. In 1998, TA divested itself
of GBIS. In 2000, TA divested itself of it's retail stores
to pursue manufacturing of the EternaLight flashlight
and other related and unrelated products developed by Thomas Hoops
and Derone Bryson. In 2007,

Derone Bryson in 1992 ceased to exist.
This site is still a
functioning sales platform for the EternaLight products
manufactured and sold by EternaLights, LLC. However,
the remainder of the site remains as it was in it's finality before
the closing of Technology Associates, Inc.
Today Mr. Bryson is privately employed as a Software Engineer. Mr. Hoops
is privately employed in a manufacturing company as
it's CTO. After working together since 1990, through their various
projects and partnerships, Mr. Hoops and Mr. Bryson are still best friends
and continue to explore new opportunities together.

GAUSS GUN $15.00 ORDER # GGUN
This is the one UNCLE SAM doesn't want you to know about! If you're a
model hobbyist who always wanted to add FIREPOWER to your toys, these
plans are for YOU!
This amazing project will take you into the world of futuristic weaponry!
It can be made incredibly small, using as little as two AA batteries
for power yet pack an amazing amount of force. Add guns to your model
boats, planes, cars, whatever!
Three easy to build projects one of which can have you silently firing
BB's in as little as 30 minutes. Imagine making a small electronic
device capable of hurling a steel BB at amazing velocities from just a
1 inch soda straw, making almost no noise when fired. And, it can be
fired entirely under electronic control. No springs, explosive
chemicals, NO MOVING PARTS - except the projectile! Very educational,
same principle can be used to develop larger weapons with deadly force.
Electronics experience necessary. Must be over 18 years of age to
order. Join our Guass Gun Builders Association at

Imagine SIMPLE, INEXPENSIVE, yet COMPLETE Home Automation and Security
System from any PC!

INTROL-PC $25.00 ORDER # INTROL1
Now HOME AUTOMATION is truly AFFORDABLE! Much
more than just a X10 timer with a computer interface, the Introl-PC
senses and makes decisions too!
Imagine security, convenience, safety, energy management controlled by
your computer that you program within your own home. You can build it
in as little as one evening at an unbelievable low cost. The system can
be wireless, hardwired or a combination thereof. Once you live in a SMART

Electronics experience necessary.
The INTROL-PC is one of the most versatile and least expensive INTELLIGENT
control systems you can buy today. Unlike other systems which are very
specialized and cost many thousands of dollars, the INTROL-PC can use
inexpensive PC compatible computers which are widely available for as
little as $500.00 or even less! Although this combination is by comparison
very inexpensive, the versatility and power is truly remarkable! As a
sensing intelligent controller, the INTROL-PC can serve many useful and
money saving functions in your daily life. For example, the INTROL-PC
can turn off your heating and AC after you leave for work and back on
when you return. When you've been away, the INTROL-PC can greet you by
turning on your porch and inside lights, then toning them down after you've
settled in -- all automatically or at the push of a button. It can start
your coffee in the morning and keep you from bumping into things at night
by sensing your motion and turning on the appropriate lights at the proper
time of night. It can control your sprinkler system more efficiently
than your current controller during water restrictions -- or water based
on soil moisture.
These are among the simplest applications of the INTROL-PC, the true power
of this device lies in your ingenuity and imagination to apply it to your
needs!
The INTROL-PC consists of a hardware interface (that you can construct
for less than $150.00) and powerful, easy-to-use, software to provide
intelligence. The interface connects an ordinary PC compatible computer
to the outside world, allowing sensing of motion, door openings, and more
as well as control of lights, appliances, etc. throughout your home.
Software Features:
- Easy to use, window oriented, menu driven user interface.
- 64,000+ timed events, allowing scheduling of events daily, weekly, or
on specific dates.
- 64,000+ operating modes, switching manually, through sensors, or by
time.
- 64,000+ assignable command sequences with chaining and concurrency.
- Four independent sensor zones per mode.
- Seasonal program set capability.
- Password protection.
- Much More!
Hardware Features:
- 4 individual sensor input zones. Wireless and/or hardwire (normally
open or normally closed).
- 16 individual wireless control channels (X10 compatible, works with
Radio Shack's "Plug'n Power" modules, BSR's X10 Powerhouse modules, and
Leviton's Decora Electronic Controls).
- 4 individual relay outputs (normally open or normally closed) capable
of switching 3 amps or more!
- Linear(tm) compatible wireless input
- Complete interface battery backup in case of power failure.
