What are FCC emission regulations? Roohparvar says the butteriser isn't subject to those regulations
Where does he say that?
(h) Digital devices in which both the highest frequency generated and the highest frequency used are less than 1.705 MHz and which do not operate from the AC power lines or contain provisions for operation while connected to the AC power lines. Digital devices that include, or make provision for the use of, battery eliminators, AC adapters or battery chargers which permit operation while charging or that connect to the AC power lines indirectly, obtaining their power through another device which is connected to the AC power lines, do not fall under this exemption.

On the indiegogo campaign. Someone asked about it.

Thanks Eric,
our device is not subject to FCC emission regulation.

Mr. Roohparvar: Obviously quite a few of these Batterisers will be built and delivered. I believe it’s a fair statement that enough will be sold in the US to be subject to FCC emission regulations. This will not be trivial since at least some form of high frequency magnetics will be involved in the boost converter. What compliance pre-testing has been done to assure the Batteriser will pass FCC requirements for a consumer device before mass production can begin?
Yes, the detective story is in the middle of this thread somewhere.
We guessed it was this guy: https://instagram.com/exellentc/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopheruken
In their last video they actually called him "Chris" so I guess that makes it definitive.

Senior Project
Biofeedback Mobility Group designed the Brainfingers Wheelchair Interface (BWI) for our client Dr. Bowen of California State University at East Bay that hopes to be one possible solution for increasing mobility. It is a Brain Computer Interface (BCI) controlled electric wheelchair. In this setup the Brainfingers BCI monitors brainwave signals and uses them to control a computer that is interfaced with the motor controllers on a Quickie P100 electric wheelchair.

Could be plausible actually:Quote(h) Digital devices in which both the highest frequency generated and the highest frequency used are less than 1.705 MHz and which do not operate from the AC power lines or contain provisions for operation while connected to the AC power lines. Digital devices that include, or make provision for the use of, battery eliminators, AC adapters or battery chargers which permit operation while charging or that connect to the AC power lines indirectly, obtaining their power through another device which is connected to the AC power lines, do not fall under this exemption.http://www.radiomet.com/documents/fcc_guide.pdf
The operator of the exempted device shall be required to stop operating the device upon a finding by the Commission or its representative that the device is causing harmful interference. Operation shall not resume until the condition causing the harmful interference has been corrected.
So after all this time and effort, they still haven't shown a single device that gives the x8 life they claim in the logo. Why?
Digital devices that do not generate or use frequencies above
1.705 MHz and that do not operate while connected to the AC power
lines, such as certain electronic calculators. Digital devices that
include, or make provision for the use of, battery eliminators, AC
adapters or battery chargers that permit operation while charging or
that connect to the AC power lines indirectly, obtaining their power
through another device that is connected to the AC power lines, do
not fall under this exemption.
Section 15.103(h)
Digital devices that are exempt from the technical standards in Part 15 are still not
permitted to cause harmful interference to any authorized radio communications.
Accordingly, it is strongly recommended that the manufacturer of an exempt digital
device endeavor to have the device meet the technical standards anyhow.
So, in addition to all the other risk, Batteroo has decided to add the risk of having sales be prohibited by the FCC if their device is shown to be an interferer after it hits the marketplace.
The test setup is shown in Fig. 8. The Olympus C3040 Camera (courtesy of
Olympus Europe) is equiped with 4 AA-Batteries under test. Every 20
seconds, a foto with full flash power in VGA-Resolution (in order to have
enough capacity on the SM storage card) and display on is made (the
RM-1 IR-remote control is connected to a pulse generator).
As soon as the battery voltage drops under 4V, the camera shuts off and
the number of fotos taken can be determined. After a pause of 12 to 24
hours, the batteries are discharged with 120mA constant current to 0.9V
in order to find their remaining capacity. From this rest capacity, an
equivalent number of Fotos is estimated (measurements during the test
showed, that for one foto an average current of 690mA can be
estimated ). Results are shown in Fig. 9.
That may also be a real issue for the end user, having a noisy switch regulator plugged inside your device.
And in some cases you insert the battery inside the shielding. Nothing is going to stop the switch-mode noise.Well...it's hidden inside a metal bracket on one side and has a close-fitting battery on the other. It might be self-shielding.
I'm sure Dave can test that for them when they send him his press evaluation kit.
I am reading through the "scientific" paper by Zinniker:
http://www2.ife.ee.ethz.ch/~rolfz/batak/ICBR2003_Zinniker.pdf
... and starting to realize how poor the methodology is. For example, the main premise of their measurement of "battery capacity" remaining is as follows (see pages 9 and 10):
...
Not to mention the Olympus C3040 is a 14 year old digital camera:

Alexander.
And within ONE day, Dr. Roohparvar has already retracted his claim regarding FCC compliance.
Glad we could help, Bob!
It is likely incidental emissions, just miss-stated the first time.
You guys think all of this is BS. Quite funny.
Dave: even if we now have a Phony you on the forum, you should just ignore hum I think

No, lets see what Mr Davey_Jonez has to say.
Perhaps he'd like to explain how and why the Batteriser is as good as it claims.
