I hafta say this has got to be the funniest marketing brain storm session I have ever read... the sh*t you guys come up with is just funny in a fun way... Thanks for making me chuckle... oh and ya could call it the Silver Bullet but I think most the females out there might get it confused with their late night early morning night stand boyfriend...

I have the last 5 of these slated for 5-11 shipment if anyone wants one.... just pm me your email and I'll send a paypal request... first come first serve......

btw: my reference to the prodigy v1 is because its the biggest concept ripoff I've seen lately! mainly because it's really just a copy of my design......ugh! and yes it is a copy, took em about 2 weeks to build some CAD models and now he is claiming he's got all the production tooling done to go into mass production... what a bunch of crap- he's just trying to rip everyone off for a fast $$$$$ guess that's what I get for sharing my ideas with a bunch of profiteers that lurk on these posts........

thank you for noticing stratovation... I guess I shouldn't be upset, but flattered...

but Man! I just can't help feeling like my design has been cheapened somehow... by the copycat mentality of someone trying to make fast $$$. I came on here to legitimately try and help people... I am making these things for next to nothing if you count the time involved.....

Well, I'm not going to suggest you shouldn't be somewhat irritated if the Prodigy proves to be a copycat... Have to wonder if Steve has any documentation proving his design process was initiated prior to your original post however. Dunno him and haven't asked him myself.

NOTDIGY 1.0 - LOL

There is a market place for multiple vendors if you choose to market yours.

There is MADE IN THE USA and then there is HAND MADE IN THE USA.

Fiat and Ferarri both made in Italy. One made on a production line and the other by hand. Which would you rather own?

Thank you esmkr209 - you are so right...

It really doesn't matter... I was not trying to mass produce anything anyways... if I do make a few more of these for people they will be special and of the highest quality.... that's all that matters to me...

rant mode off... lets get back to that naming contest

one other important design note... I haven't really mentioned yet is that for the modders out there they should be able to fabricate their own insert adapters to fit inside the body of the "name-pending" by disassembling their spare oem batts, etc... basically the end is open enough to allow someone with a little bit of knowledge to make their own...

I personally like taking things apart... that is why every single piece of this thing is able to be taken apart... that is part of the beauty of the design and what really has taken me a lot of time to develop... this is also something you will not see in a production unit, as it cuts down on profits for replacements... it is easier and more cost effective to make something that only goes together once.. but more challenging to be make all the parts serviceable... for example open the hood to a car from the 50's and then the hood from a car today and see what it takes to change an alternator (maybe not the best analogy, but I hope you get the point)... I have tried very hard to keep that in mind while I spent hours upon hours with hand sketches or in front of the design "tube"... almost every piece either unscrews or is held together with a common fastener...
