The patents would expire in 2029 if the company paid the necessary maintenance fees.

Which, as the USPTO shows with no ambiguity, THEY DID NOT. The patents are expired NOW, due to non-payment of maintenance fees.

And they have eight patents, three of which are DESIGN patents which don't protect the device.

And this is the part where you insult me again and call me a joke. It's OK, go ahead, I expect it. It's called the Ad Hominem fallacy and it's basically the only response I ever get on this board.

If you want to discuss the possibility of BIEL reinstating the patents, well, that would be an actual discussion. Tread lightly there because you'd be in uncharted territory.

It doesn't matter how many patents they have or don't have, if the little watch battery powered gizmo doesn't sell, like it does now then it's worthless, like now.

Why don't you go pump a garbage can.
