 It does this through a Simple, Green and Carbon Free, transfer of power,
 upscaled from the laptops USB Port to the laptops power port.

This seems to be a nice little earner, as the website indicates:

			So are you saying that a webdesign business isn't allowed to do a job for a next door business without first owning the company??? Never go by a WHOIS as to who owns the company either as a lot of domains are registered in the name/address of the web designer especially if the company owner is an IT numpty..
 In the end it's neither here nor there.. No-one here is stupid enough to purchase a licence to produce a device that is literaly saying that it's creating perpetual energy. As Ignitionnet has said if you have a problem with it complain to google or as I said get in contact with trading standards but publishing thier address and trying to link them to other companies (which may or may not be correct) isn;t really what people should be doing in this thread.
