about 14 days have passed in the campaign extension and only about 30.000$ extra..... maybe people are finding the debunk video´s or this forum + pages about debunking the batteriser.
Approx 2000$ pr day is not much, at this rate they will get maybe 60.000$ extra vs the 290.000 they had at end of 1 due date....
And i just love the response to 5ky´s GPS test.
"the test is not vaild because he does not have batteriser sleves to test with....."
But People will put 2 and 2 together when they see 17+ hours vs 2.5, and going to read actual reviews (old even) saying runtime was 15+ hours...
It may help to look at other such campaigns that have gone into "extended funding" mode. I would like to think EEVBlog videos had something to do with it, but I have a feeling we are but a small blip. And we would have been an even smaller blip if Batteroo didn't actually pay any attention to Dave's videos and never bother to mount any rebuttals. I am not sure how many people would have found the debunking videos on their own without Batteroo actually calling attention to them in their replies.
In any case, look at the "Airing" (
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/airing-the-first-hoseless-maskless-micro-cpap#/story). It is a complete sham, yet they managed to get 896% funded in their initial campaign period (forgot how many days it was). They set a $100,000 goal, so this means they sucked in $896,000. Since then, it has been a few months and they have slowly climbed up to $1,038,970 (that's another $142,970... or about 15%). If Batteriser makes $60k on top of their $300k it will be almost 20% more.
These campaigns with their paid hype media marketing only works a short time. After that, it is hard to make the "news" again. I don't think Batteroo would have made much more money even if nobody debunked them. And if the debunking videos actually worked, I would have expected at least a bunch of the existing Batteriser backers to have asked for a refund.
