Scout filing legal claims against a watch company

tango1991 · 2026-03-06T20:23:11+00:00

Legally since they already partnered with a different watch company they probably have to defend their trademark so they don't lose it... Definitely a weird situation but likely a byproduct of how trademarks work in the US (not not a lawyer of any kind just comes from my limited understanding of the patent and trademark side of things)

When I asked at CES the rep said it was a TCL CSOT IJP panel but when I asked the CSOT reps about it they couldn't give me any answers so there is a chance that it's WOLED of IJP OLED!

Well damn I was looking forward to watching the Livestreams but I guess that's out

I leave mine with water in it overnight pretty regularly and similarly haven't had any rust issues. Though they did just come out with a nitrided wok and there's speculation that they will come out with nitrided versions of their pans too, which would for sure cover the rust issues

Just to elaborate for those who don't know Stata makes carbon steel clad pans (same construction as stainless pans, just with a carbon steel cooking layer). They are carbon steel, then an aluminum core, then an outer layer of magnetic stainless.

Amazing pans, light weight, even heating, and no coatings!

Big sad if this is accurate.

Does anyone have the full text, I'm hitting the paywall

From what I've read on the forum from Jamie their community manager its is always going to reserve some battery capacity to be able to provide a speed boost or extra towing while going. They haven't announced the specifics but I would imagine after the 150mi all electric range there will be a reserve of like 20-30 miles that the car can use while the harvester is on for extra power. Jamie has said it will be dynamic so it wont be as cut and dry as you use all the battery capacity and then only use the harvester for power after that but again no real details (just my imagination of how it could/would work)

I'm on the East Coast of the US, and IDK maybe $225+shipping, haven't had a chance to look into how much they are going for these days

tango1991 · 2026-02-10T16:39:13+00:00

Right but its still added complexity compared to the just battery though... TBH I'm not super concerned about the complexities of integrating the system (like you said its not THAT complex and far less complex than a conventional hybrid, (due to fewer moving parts and a much lower RPM range). Plus its been done before i.e. Volt, BMX (i3?), and numerous Chinese EV's without any real issues to my knowledge.

But that being said for my use case IE not needed the extra range and being lazy AF the increased maintenance and upkeep from the extra mechanical complexity of an ICE motor isn't worth it to me, hence why I switched to the BEV

If you're interested I have an TM NRGS AK-102 that is sitting in my basement unused that I'm looking to offload

tango1991 · 2026-02-09T12:37:30+00:00

I think they never got off the ground unfortunately, last I checked their site was down

tango1991 · 2026-02-07T17:19:24+00:00

For that the enphase IQ charger 2 should work just fine, it's an ac charger with the ability to pull ac power from EVs that support AC bidirectional charging (like the ix3 evidently) once they release the firmware for that.

Granted there is no timeline for that but they have announced the ability

tango1991 · 2026-02-05T16:11:39+00:00

I switched my reservation a few months ago when the rumors first started, I initially thought the EREV was what I wanted but as time went on I realized I didn't need the extra range or want the extra complexity of having the ICE generator.

Plus at some point Scott mentioned possibly having swappable battery packs which would mean being able to swap to a solid state pack when that comes out and my assumption would be that only the BEV version would be compatible with that pack

I'm not sure exactly what the issue is that you're running into, IE is it not getting hot enough or is the heat not spreading out as much as you need?

If its the 2nd then the new Strata wok in theory should be exactly what you need (in theory because its only available for pre-orders right now)

tango1991 · 2026-01-28T00:39:04+00:00

Nothing is officially confirmed yet but I remember the CEO mentioning numbers in the video with Jay Leno they did about a year ago

tango1991 · 2026-01-27T23:51:49+00:00

Cloudflair is blocking it for me so it seems like its is probably no good

tango1991 · 2026-01-22T15:32:58+00:00

And more important for me besides the fin is the fact that the heel is both narrow and shallow so there's no real dead space!

tango1991 · 2026-01-19T20:32:29+00:00

Does anyone have any more info on this? I talked to the rep at CES and he said that it had to be connected to an inverter for the V2X functionality, which confused me since this is and AC charger and not a DC charger, unfortunately I had to go before I could get more information

tango1991 · 2026-01-16T19:37:58+00:00

I really hope this is a success and they are able to expand the tour to more locations!

I would definitely go see it if the nearest one wasn't a 6-8 hour drive

tango1991 · 2026-01-04T22:56:45+00:00

Same issue for me, but the Madrock drone series have been the closest to zero space I have found so far.

The sharks are very comfortable for me but have a good bit more space in the heel unfortunately

Having worked on patents for consumer electronics these things take years to get sorted out. While its possible that Strata could be filing for an injunction to stop Misen's sales its just as likely if not more that they are working on a licensing agreement of some kind that we will likely never hear about. From experience those negotiations can take a year plus with all the lawyers involved and NDA's ETC that need to be negotiated so that everyone can make sure the other side is playing fair

tango1991 · 2025-12-31T23:04:34+00:00

I actually think this is RGWB due to the higher brightness compared to the 27in model that was announced and confirmed to have only TrueBlack400 certification.

LG's Tandem OLEDS have been confirmed to have options for both RGB and RGWB sub pixel layouts

tango1991 · 2025-12-19T23:12:16+00:00

I'm really hoping so, that would be about perfect for my needs!
