Well. let's analyze the contents of the product brochure:
 
-Conspiracy theories, collusion between the Government and big business? Check!
-Motivated by altruism, not profit, siding with the average suffering Joe/Jane? Check!
-Mentioning Nikola Tesla? Check!
-Posting meaningless waveforms? Check!
-Bullshit technical terms? Check!
-Lots of smiling faces? Check!
-Posting fake reviews? Check!
-Emphasizing the legality of the device? Check!
-Outlandish claims? Lots of hyperbole? Check! Check!
-Only US$ 49? CHECK!!
 
I am thoroughly convinced! I am ordering twenty of these and giving them away as Christmas gifts!

Brain washed and conditioned that the device WILL work and WILL produce results no matter what your energy bill says after... it's all in our policies.

Ops  I thought a newspaper was promoting it but they expose it to
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/miracle-device-slash-your-electricity-26654632

Well. let's analyze the contents of the product brochure:
 
-Conspiracy theories, collusion between the Government and big business? Check!
-Motivated by altruism, not profit, siding with the average suffering Joe/Jane? Check!
-Mentioning Nikola Tesla? Check!
...
-Stock photo
Don't forget the stock photo's as that seems to be one of their favourites.

Stock photo that they took from here:
https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/portrait-of-three-businessmen-in-office-1-gm583697766-99848701

I see the others too like Voltex on the reverse lookup results.

"Meanwhile, lawmakers refuse to introduce an electricity bill designed to end the deceptive marketing practices that power companies use to reap massive profits every year. "

This type of thing has been around for years, usually claim to work on inductive loads such as fridges / freezer inverters. They possibly may have had an effect on the old mechanical dial meters but I can’t see them having any effect on a modern meter.

I've bought so many free energy generators that I don't need to lower my bill anymore.

No it's not "only $49", it's "Satarting at just $49".  I think that means you get chicken skewers with peanut sauce with it.

It is just gonna be a capacitor across the mains. But since residential power does not get charged for apparent power it will do nothing for your power bill.

Also the photo of the creators is a Stock Photo.

I enjoyed the photo of the "Founders of the Device".  And you know this is legit: "Satarting at just $49, the device would pay for itself within just one month."  My question is- which month?  How do I get satarted?
