I think that this product *COULD* be interesting in certain circumstances ! Some time ago, I had a look into the box where my wife and my daughter drop their used batteries. MOST OF THEM where 1.3 to 1.4 V !!! About 30 batteries in a box containing 40 to 50. I dont know all the gadgets they use batteries for, but the devices did'nt work anymore, and they said "bat lo"... This is measurements, not only readings. But I have a mouse which claims very long battery life, and most likely includes a boost converter (dont remember exactly, but it is what I have been thinking of when I got it : a Microsoft touch mouse). The mouse works until the batteries reach 0.9 or 1.0 V (to be verified). I run this mouse for months with used batteries only ! (less than 1.3 V) This product could be interesting for old devices. I imagine that many low power more recent devices already include boost converters (?). IMHO, product is not BS, but advertising is. |
