Yes, I said that in my original video. Batteriser fixed the issue by insulating the metal. Still a potential issue I think, that thin stainless steel is going to be sharp.

Yes, the stainless steel edges will be sharp.  This is part of their ingenious pivot to take on BIG RAZOR BLADE as well as BIG BATTERY.

Until proven otherwise, all TED talk presenters should be considered as charismatic charlatans.

As far as I know, Gillette Razors and Duracell batteries belong to the same company, so "big razor" and "big battery" are in this together!

Ooooohhhhhh!  It all starts to make sense now.  The Batterbros threaten the might of the globalist NWO corporations who have the might of Aussie dramatic arts graduates doing their evil bidding.  No wonder these brave warriors have been unable to deliver a single bloody unit...

I hate to deliberately appear dense, but, can someone explain the reference to "Aussie dramatic arts graduates" please. I had to search on "NWO" but the other has me mystified.
Look up Dave's LinkedIn profile and all should become clear.

Oops, looks like I'm not up to date. That deal must have been kept relatively quiet, I don't remember seeing anything about that.

It's such an obvious scam :wtf:. It looks even worse to me. Did they try to sell as much as possible over there website? But for what earnings? Ruined personal reputation + Indiegogo=400.000$ + x$? That is not so much money for there "big" and well paid management team :blah:.  And, if I remember correct, some top qualified engineers :-/O + awesome chipdevelopment team  :-BROKE + hard working production team and production facility :horse: + .... It smells so bad.  :palm:

But I feel well entertained.  :popcorn:

So that's now two working weeks since the shipping announcement and not a single delivery?
And remember, in the same post they indicated that they thought some people would have already gotten them  :-//

This guy claims he has received his shipment, but he could just be a Roohparvar shill.

Nice. Only one has received the shipment. Maybe the rest are lost or something. I wonder why Alex is requested to take a picture it the other backers are to receive their shipments any day now.

I haven't been following the thread for a long time any more, but did Bob post any pictures on assembly, manufacturing and shipment? I would be surprised if he did. Maybe he doesn't have a camera or he cannot transfer the pictures from his camera to his web site.

"Looks" great. No mention of how it works  :horse:

I suspect that 'shipping' meant they're on a container ship, rather than being sent from the factory by air. It's a vague enough term that it may well not mean individual units are being sent to their end customers - just that a boat load of stuff has left the factory.

What I have heard, it is not that unusual that sometimes the containers may get lost or fall off a ship.

Yep, "Alex Malek" used to work at Flextronics with Bob - so he isn't independant

And I think "Hibbo" might be fake - he was the one who asked back in January about using Batterisers in electric cars (deleted but still in Google cache)
