Nobody from Batteroo has posted here - certainly as far as we know.
If there had been, you would not have any doubts.
The direct comunication was with videos.
Butteriser posted a video.
Dave posted a video showing that the video was full of false claims
Butteriser posted a video trying to disprove Dave.
Dave posted a video showing that the answer video was full off bull s.....

Actually, there was a sock puppet account at one point. I think they caught on that we had caught on and they disappeared pretty quick.

In that case Bob would be admitting that he lied about shipping them to backers.
Bob did ship these to Wayne in the official final packaging, with the official indiegogo back letter, and marked his pledge as being fulfilled. So according to Bob these are not prototypes.
The fit is tight - some brands of the 9.6V rechargeable types do not fit as they slightly exceed the 9V RECT form factor, maybe by 1mm or less. And of all things that could USE a boost converter like the Batterizer... to the point where I have considered building my own and fitting it inside the case somewhere. Or fitting 2 AA plus boost converter for longer life. Current draw isn't high, but the thing is very sensitive to voltage - when it gets much below 8.2V it gets erratic and stops working completely shortly thereafter.
I did not know that. Never saw such a thing. A quick Google isn't finding me anything, other than some simply 3V to V boost circuits.
I'm assuming the 800mAh ones I found on Banggood are utter bullshit, seeing as how all the rest are a more reasonable 400mAh.
He's one to talk, honestly, after what he said to you in his initial email.
I didn't see anything particularly viscous directed at him, and what *was* said only came after his email.
Frankly, I don't think he ever planned on sending you anything. I think he's just saying that now to make you feel bad.
Trust me, the response he received was mild compared to some forums I've seen. He's lucky this isn't 4chan, Reddit or Something Awful.
I don't know how you'd like to characterise viscous [sic] but you've only just suggested he was lying to Dave.
I'll take your word the response may be mild compared to other forums. I don't think that is much of an endorsement of a community that ought to be able to rise to a greater standard since it has the technical base to support judgements based on empirical evidence.
I was by coincidence searching on "Henry IV" and the first response page showed this quote.
"We can only reason from what is; we can reason on actualities, but not on possibilities."
If someone was sending the guy death threats or burst into his company's office covered in petroleum jelly and pubes (both things other forums are guilty of) it would be one thing. But nobody here did that.
A few people emailed him, inquiring about the Batterisers he received. A couple of other people called him a mildly inappropriate name, *after* he did the same to Dave.
He's not an innocent victim. He could have simple ignored the emails he got, or told people he didn't want to be contacted. He didn't do that. He could have not attacked Dave, either, but he did...
Keep in mind I'm not defending anyone being rude to him, or anyone else. However, I'm realistic and know that, no matter where you go, there will *always* be people who are immature and rude. Always. That's life.
Finally, I didn't say he was lying. What I said was, that in my opinion, the offer was never genuine. As someone who's studied psychology, it's pretty clear (to me) what he's doing. It's a form of splitting. He's trying to position Dave against his forum members (us).
It is well past time for this to stop.
I don't see how continuing any conversation about Wayne will be productive toward anything you just said.
Yes, there's plenty of scams, bogus campaigns, 'facts' that are just plain wrong. Better education can help with that, not witchhunts and pitchforks.
It is well past time for this to stop.
Stop what? Am I not entitled to my opinion?
For the record I don't think Wayne, or anyone else for that matter, should be harassed. Treat others as you would be treated and all...

There is currently one person in the world that has Batterisers in hand that is willing to communicate with us, and he's in Australia so could send me some next day if he chose. Yet many people here seems to want to keep antagonising him, even if only in a slight way
As for my "psychoanalysis", that was one sentence in one previous post related to one specific thing he said to Dave. I don't know why you guys are getting your panties in a twist over that. It was a valid assessment.
