I was emailed by this company, they are looking for electricians to install this product which I think does not work.
What do you think? Has anyone seen or heard of this?
This is one of their responses when I told them the only to reduce energy consumption is to reduce power or wattage.


Their response......
I do, obviously you think you are smarter than the boys at Sandia Labs
and Oakridge Labs, both have tested the product and said it works.

Have a nice day

He implies you are the stupid one, but offers no theory or proof of how the product works. He is a classic snake oil salesman.

Hmm. It's 'being tested' at Oak Ridge & Sandia laboratories. Who are they, and what exactly are they testing?

Money-back guarantee on the installation costs? I doubt it.

What, exactly, is "filtering, purifying & stabilizing" power?

If it is patented, ask for the patent #. Then look it up at the link below and you can see exactly what it does.

http://patft.uspto.gov/

If it is a "patent pending" do a number search on the patent applications, otherwise do a number search on the issued patents.

Note that in no way am I saying I have any belief that this does anything as claimed - just that if someone says that something is patented, the how and what is in the public domain.

Often times "patented" means a design patent which only protects the artwork. Real companies get design patents to protect a distinctive product style features.

IMHO, the Google Patent Search is easier to use than the USPTO site.
