Yep, it's been suspended with 10 hours left
Doesn't mean it's cancelled, I suspect they are going to ask Solus to prove their claims.
This is now tricky business because it possibly puts some sort of legal liability on Kickstarter if they suspend it, evaluate the claims, and then reinstate it?
Point 6 of their
terms of use tries to exclude any liability. But might not be valid if they get sued. But in this case it is simple: It is a clear violation of their rules. Unless I missed it, Solus didn't provide a controlled test, like using a $10 heater for heating a room for a day with temperature measurements, and then using the panel for the same room and it has the same temperature curve, but needed only 20% of the energy.
Their test video where Solus needs only 66% compared to an oil heater is bullshit, because they measured the temperature only once at the beginning and then once after 24 hours. So probably the oil heater has heated the room to 20°C in an hour, and then maintained this for the other 23 hours, but we don't know how long Solus needed to reach this temperature. He even says in the video that it is more effective if you do the test for a week. Sure, if you want to freeze for 6 days until it gets to 20°C at day 7, then Solus is perfect for you and it might even work for bigger rooms

I reported it as well two days ago and got the same eMail:

Maybe they have some threshold, like ignore less than 10 reports and only then take a look at the project.
