This information statement is first being furnished on or about ______, 2009 to shareholders of record as of April 8, 2009 (the "record date") of Electronic Sensor Technology, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "company," "we," "our," or "us"), to advise such shareholders of certain actions to be taken without a meeting upon the written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock of the company. The company's 2008 annual report is being mailed to shareholders concurrently with this information statement. This information statement and the 2008 annual report are also available on the Internet at: http://www.cstproxy.com/estcal/2009.

On April 30, 2009, the company received a written consent in lieu of a meeting of shareholders from the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of the company entitled to vote as of the record date, in connection with the following actions:

(1) election of directors;

(4) approval of an amendment to the company's Articles of Incorporation to clarify and restate that the purpose of the company is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada.

The decision to forgo holding an annual meeting of shareholders and to rely upon the shareholders acting by written consent in lieu of an annual meeting to ratify and approve the proposed actions is authorized by Section 1.1 of the company's bylaws, which provides that, unless otherwise required by applicable law, the Board of Directors may choose not to hold an annual meeting and by Section 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes and Section 1.5 of the company's bylaws, which provide that the written consent of shareholders holding at least a majority of the voting power may be substituted for such annual meeting. In order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in holding an annual meeting and in order to effect or ratify the proposals as early as possible, the Board of Directors of the company voted to utilize the written consent of the majority shareholders.

Sincerely,

/s/ Philip Yee

PROPOSED ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN

This information statement contains a summary of the material aspects of the actions approved by the Board of Directors and the holders of the majority of the outstanding common stock of the company.

You are being provided with this information statement pursuant to
Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 14C and Schedule 14C thereunder, and, in accordance therewith, the actions set forth below will not become effective until at least twenty (20) calendar days after the mailing of this information statement.

Election of Directors

The Board of Directors of the company nominated the following persons on April 28, 2009, to stand for election to the company's Board of Directors until their successors are elected and assume office. The following slate of nominees was approved by written consent of the majority shareholders on April 30, 2009:

Teong C. Lim Thomas Dudley Low Gay Teck

Maggie Tham William Wittmeyer

All of the above individuals are currently serving as directors of the company. See pages 6 through 8 for biographical information regarding the directors.

Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation

Our Board of Directors and the holders of a majority of our outstanding common stock have adopted and approved resolutions to amend and restate the company's Articles of Incorporation in the form attached hereto as Appendix A to give effect to the following amendments:

o to increase the authorized number of shares of common stock of the company, $.001 par value per share, from 200,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares;

o to vest authority in the Board of Directors of the company to prescribe the classes, series and the number of each class or series of preferred stock and the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of preferred stock; and

o to clarify and restate that the purpose of the company is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada.

Increase in Authorized Common Stock

The Board of Directors determined that the best interests of the company and its shareholders will be served by amending and restating the company's Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock that the company is authorized to issue from 200,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares in order to enable the company to maintain a sufficient amount of authorized but unissued shares to honor the exercise or conversion of existing warrants, debentures and options held by the company's existing shareholders. The newly authorized shares of common stock will have voting and other rights identical to those of the currently authorized shares of common stock.

Possible Dilution

Our Board of Directors will have the authority to issue authorized shares of common stock without requiring future shareholder approval of such issuances, except as may be required by applicable law or regulations

and the company's current agreements. Accordingly, if the Board of Directors elects to issue additional shares of common stock, such issuance could have a dilutive effect on the ownership interest of current shareholders. The holders of our common stock generally do not have preemptive rights to subscribe to additional securities that may be issued by the company, which means that current shareholders do not have a prior right to purchase any new issue of common stock in order to maintain their proportionate ownership interest in the company.

Potential Anti-Takeover Effects

An increase in the authorized shares of common stock could adversely affect the ability of third parties to takeover or change the control of the company, for example, by permitting issuances that would dilute the stock ownership of a person seeking to effect a change in the composition of the Board of Directors or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction for the combination of the company with another company. Although the increased proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, the increase in the authorized shares of common stock is not being undertaken in response to any effort of which we are aware to accumulate shares of our common stock or obtain control of the company, nor is it part of a plan by management to recommend a series of similar transactions that could be construed to affect the ability of third parties to take over or change the control of the company.

Board of Directors' Authority to Prescribe Rights, Preferences and Limitations of Preferred Stock

Section 78.195 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides that if a corporation has more than one class or series of stock, the articles of incorporation must prescribe or vest in the board of directors the authority to prescribe the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights of any class or series of stock.

The Board of Directors of the company determined that it would be in the best interests of the company and its shareholders to amend and restate the Articles of Incorporation of the company to grant the Board of Directors of the company the authority to determine and state the classes, series and the number of each class or series of preferred stock and the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of preferred stock.

Purpose of the Company

The Board of Directors determined that it would be in the best interests of the company and its shareholders to amend and restate the Articles of Incorporation of the company to clarify and restate that the purpose of the business of the company is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada.

DISSENTERS' RIGHT OF APPRAISAL

Neither the Nevada Revised Statutes nor the company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws provide for appraisal rights in connection with the proposed actions.

Change in Control

On March 28, 2008, the company entered into and closed a Securities Purchase Agreement with Halfmoon Bay, pursuant to which, in exchange for a purchase price of $5,500,000 paid by Halfmoon Bay, Electronic Sensor Technology issued (i) 86,419,753 shares of its common stock at a price of $0.0405 per share (which is 90% of the closing quotation of the common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board for the trading day preceding the closing date) and (ii) a 9% convertible debenture due five (5) years from the closing date, with a conversion price of $0.0486 (which is 120% of the price at which the common stock was issued to Halfmoon Bay) in a principal amount of $2,000,000, with interest to be paid thereon semiannually. According to Amendment No. 1 to its Schedule 13D/A filed with the SEC on April 10, 2008, Halfmoon Bay provided the consideration for the transaction from existing working capital and existing banking facilities. The company agreed to use, and did use, $3,500,000 of the purchase price paid by Halfmoon Bay, in addition to shares of its common stock, to extinguish the existing 8% convertible debentures, and related accrued interest, held by Midsummer Investment Ltd. and Islandia, LP, pursuant to the Conversion and Termination Agreement among the company and Midsummer and Islandia dated as of February 26, 2008, which is further described in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2008.

As a result of the transaction described above, Halfmoon Bay owns approximately 55% of the outstanding common stock of the company, and beneficially owns an additional 10% of the outstanding common stock of the company by virtue of the shares underlying its 9% convertible debenture. Immediately prior to such transaction, no single shareholder of the company owned a majority of the outstanding shares of the company, and the company's largest owners of outstanding shares were L&G Resources (1994), Inc. (wholly owned by Land & General Berhad), owning approximately 16%; TC Lim, LLC (wholly owned by Teong Lim, a director of the company), owning approximately 9%; 3 Springs, LLC (wholly owned by Francis Chang, a former director of the company), owning approximately 7%; and Midsummer and Islandia, collectively owning approximately 8%).

To the knowledge of management, there are no present arrangements or pledges of securities of the company which may result in a further change in control of the company.

Director Independence

Although we are not required to have independent directors on our Board of Directors because our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange or an inter-dealer quotation system that has director independence requirements, two of the five directors on our Board are independent using the definition of "independent director" contained in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. Our independent directors are Low Gay Teck and Thomas Dudley. Under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, an "independent director" is generally defined as a person other than an executive officer or employee of the company or another individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the company's Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

The members of our audit committee and our compensation committee include Thomas Dudley, who is also the chairman of both committees, Maggie Tham and William Wittmeyer. In addition to being an independent director under Rule 5605(a)(2), the NASDAQ audit committee independence standards (which are also not applicable to us) contain NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(c), which requires that audit committee members meet certain additional independence requirements. Thomas Dudley is independent under the NASDAQ audit committee independence standards.

Board of Directors Committees

Our Board of Directors held five (5) meetings during our 2008 fiscal year. Each director attended 75% or more of the meetings of the Board and the Board committees on which the director served, if any. All seven of our directors serving at the time of our 2007 annual meeting of shareholders attended such meeting. In 2008, the Board of Directors decided to forgo holding an annual meeting of shareholders and to rely upon the shareholders acting by written consent in lieu of an annual meeting in order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in holding an annual meeting and in order to effect or ratify the proposals as early as possible. From time to time, our Board may act by unanimous written consent as permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.

Our Board of Directors has formed an audit committee and a compensation committee. During our 2008 fiscal year, the audit committee held one (1) meeting and the compensation committee did not hold any meetings. The current members of the audit committee and our compensation committee are Thomas Dudley, who is also the chairman of both committees, Maggie Tham and William Wittmeyer. Generally, the functions to be performed by the audit committee are selecting our independent auditor, directing and supervising investigations into matters within the scope of its duties, reviewing with the independent auditor the plan and results of its audit, reviewing internal auditing procedures and results, and determining the nature of other services to be performed by, and fees to be paid to, the independent auditor. Generally, the functions to be performed by the compensation committee include establishing compensation rates and procedures with respect to our senior management. Both committees have adopted charters, each of which is posted on our website at http://www.estcal.com/.

Our Board of Directors does not yet have a standing nominating committee or committee performing similar functions. Director candidates are currently selected by the Board of Directors, some of whom are independent as defined in the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, and others of whom are not. In evaluating director nominees, our Board considers a variety of factors, including: the appropriate size of our Board of Directors; our needs with respect to the particular talents and experience of our directors; and the knowledge, skills and experience of nominees. We do not have a formal policy with respect to the consideration of any director candidates

recommended by our shareholders. Our Board believes its process for evaluation of nominees proposed by shareholders would be no different from the process of evaluating any other candidate.

Our Board of Directors has determined that we have one audit committee financial expert on our audit committee. Our audit committee financial expert is Thomas Dudley. Although there are no standards applicable to us regarding the independence of our audit committee members, Dr. Dudley would be considered independent using the standards contained in the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, as described under "Director Independence."

The audit committee has discussed with Sherb & Co. LLP, the company's independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. The audit committee received the written disclosures and the letter from Sherb & Co. required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding Sherb & Co's communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with them their independence.

Based on the review and discussions noted above, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 for filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
