Re:: Application for Withdrawal of Registration Statement:
Maxwell Technologies, Inc.
Registration Statement No. 333-90320

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Maxwell Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Registrant"), hereby requests pursuant to Rule 477(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") consent to the withdrawal of the Registrant's Registration Statement, which previously was filed with the Commission on June 18, 2002 on Form S-3 under the Act (Registration No. 333-90320), along with any exhibits filed thereto ("Registration Statement").

The Registrant is currently negotiating a material transaction. The Registrant has determined, in connection with the possible consummation of this transaction, that it is in the best interests of the Registrant and its stockholders to withdraw the Registration Statement until such time as the transaction is consummated. For this reason, the Registrant is requesting the withdrawal of the Registration Statement.

No securities have been sold in connection with the Registration Statement. The Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission.

Please direct any questions or comments regarding this filing to the undersigned at (858) 503-5165.

		Very truly yours,
		MAXWELL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
		/s/ DONALD M. ROBERTS Donald M. Roberts Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary
