Another day, another kickstarter razor project ...

 

[Drubbing]

How long before they bring out the 3 laser version?

Just think they'd be better off having even just one of the developers of a new innovative razor to be clean-shaven....even if just for the promo footage. Hmmm....

Didn't expect to see funding like that when I click the link, WOW!

Watched the demo video. I've participated in enough Kickstarters to see where this is going.
18 month delay and a product that doesn't meet expectations.

I see problems galore with this one... Battery lasts "about a month"
Have they got approval from officials yet?
What about normal skin with raised bumps, etc?
Long term affects of applying intense light to your face/skin daily...?

My In-Laws would be frothing in the mouth over the big "C" word! How about yours Eggy? [emoji6]

This thing scream 'Scam' all over the place. This reminds me of the ''Twentieth Century Motor Car Corporation'' and the Dale car.The Dale was a three-wheeler supposed do 100km with 3.5L, the project was a gigantic fraud and the entrepreneur went into hiding with the investors money.

Why crowdfunding? Only $160,000? Why is there no demonstration in the pitch video? Why do they all have beards?

You heard it first here on P&C. It was those beards that were the give away...
