> This device is exactly what I need for a project I am developing in which battery conversation is of paramount importance. My project is to help the increasing number of people suffering with dementia. I'm sure the readers of this blog will know of someone who suffers in this horrible way.
> I am new to this blog and I'm astonished at the way negative comments are made. I refer to the cavalier way in which Dave 'busts' Bristol University's UB20M.
Go watch the video again and listen. I say good things about the UB20M chip itself, more than once I believe.
I simply called out the marketing BS, which they have basically admitted too, and why they removed and reedited their video.
>Perhaps BU could have made a better video and being more precise as to what the UB20M does exactly.
They went and did exactly that, taking out the
misleading parts.
>I found it rather odd that Dave actually attacked individuals, rather than products, read out their names and been cynical about their attempts to explain their stuff. He could have taken the role of educating this audience, but instead whipped them up against BU with his sensationalist manner.
Err, they were the ones featured in their own video and are the ones making the statements and claims. Of course I addressed them personally.
I did try to educated my audience, you just don't like the way I did it.
> However it was clear, that as I read through the comments, I noticed after first making a negative comments, some bloggers back-tracked and reappraised the UB20M in a more positive way.

> When I first looked at this blog I could see that others looking at it would not bother reading any further due to the negative headline. What a pity! Considering how many people visit this blog I would think that it behoves the Administrators to act in an honourable way, when a negative headline is the first comment, to either edit or retract the headline once clarity has been established.
They asked for their image to be removed from the thumbnail and I did so.
They did not ask for the video to be removed or edited, nor the headline changed.
> How about it Dave?
No. The title is not "UB20M chip BUSTED". It is very specifically a claim about the zero TV standby claim.
If people want to take it the other way then there is absolutely no way I can change their mind about doing so. I have already said more than once in the video that there is nothing wrong with the chip itself.
The only other step would be to remove the video entirely.
