MEDIS TECHNOLOGIES FUEL CELL POWER PACK RECEIVES AWARD FROM CONSUMER ELECTRONICS ASSOCIATION

New York, NY, November 13, 2007 - Medis Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:MDTL) announced today that its 24/7 Fuel Cell Power Pack has been selected by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) as an Innovations 2008 Design and Engineering Award Honoree in the
Eco-Design and Sustainable Technology product category. The Eco-Design and Sustainable Technology Award is one of the CEA’s newest award categories, and is given to products that consumers would find attractive and that exhibit innovative features which are incorporated into consumer electronics that make them safe for the environment and sustainable. This category also acknowledges those products that provide technology/connectivity to developing communities. The award will be presented to Medis Technologies at the Consumer Electronics Show to be held in Las Vegas, Nevada, from January 7-10, 2008.

"We are delighted that the CEA has selected our fuel cell Power Pack for this prestigious award," said Robert K. Lifton, Chairman & CEO of Medis Technologies. "We are very proud that our Power Pack is a "green" product which, unlike batteries, does not have deleterious metals or other materials that damage the earth and, therefore, has been chosen as safe for the environment and sustainable. The Power Pack also offers a source of power for the connectivity that is sought by developing communities which are increasingly using cell phones and other hand held devices for communication and education but are lacking widespread sources of power for those devices. We are particularly pleased that the award will be presented at the Consumer Electronic Show, where we expect the announcement from a top tier OEM customer that they plan to introduce the Power Pack as a product bearing their brand which they plan to market to enterprise and retail customers in the United States, European and Asian markets."

The Medis 24/7 Power Pack is also listed on the CEA website: www.mygreenelectronics.org where CEA is encouraging the public to "Reuse, Reduce, Recycle and Rethink" by making  smarter, more environmentally-friendly choices by purchasing green electronics.
