I’m hoping they have the courtesy to send Dave some free Batteriser samples to review, after all the help/information he’s been providing.
A PhD and Masters. And the PhD guy is/was a professor
I just did a patentsearch on the guy, he claims to have more than 500 US patents, and he does, 505 to be exact. All from a nand flash company Micron, and a lot almost the same.

5 guys with mega qualifications, probable substantial revenue streams and lines of credit, looking for a paltry 30,000$ investment on the internet to subsidize their project. That doesn't make much sense, unless the whole thing is baloney.
Making those pretty prototypes must have cost them that much.

I wonder if the people who wrote fluff articles based on the batteriser press release are happy that their names are now being used to endorse the product?
Quote from: coppice on July 27, 2015, 11:40:31 amI think I might have a use for these things. There are a number of devices which refuse to run from a hydride cell, because they cut out at 1.4V or so.Sure, there's one or two devices where this could be useful.But ... they're only a tiny percentage of devices. Care to name yours?

A Google for "batteriser" currently has this for me as the 3rd result:http://hackaday.com/2015/06/06/crowdfunding-follies-debunking-the-batteriser/Dave's #751 video is also on the first page.
