Patent offices raise objections BEFORE they grant the patent, not after. You have to overcome any issues they raise before it can be granted. (I worked as a patent examiner for the UK office)

@@KaryoSentiko That is at the core of the patent though, specifically that no part of the staple is conductive. They are specifically targeting non-conductive plastics strong and cost effective in replicating a penetrating fixing as _that_ is what differentiates _their_ product from others on the market, and _that_ specifically is what allows it to rate for required design standards to be used on 240v installations. PJ was viewing it as if the wording is somewhat arbitrary, and it could have just been how they presented it, not how it's written. They key is _non-conductive plastics and polymers,_ which is no different from say the wording used in the patent for many tool assemblies. It's not specified _which metals or plastics precisely_ they're constructed from _unless_ that medium is the only one which can be used, or someone will just sidestep the patent by using a different medium with very similar properties.

I’m an electrician and in UK we need a product like this. I was waiting for bigger manufacturers like Milwaukee to come up with a product like this but nothing. Milwaukee has an electric stapler but is not for electric cables. Dewalt has one but is too bulky. The gun they presented looks like is taking Milwaukee M12 batteries. Btw, they have to design some metallic electric staples too as the new regs asks to be installed in special locations to prevent premature collapse in an event of a fire.

Better to give up a LITTLE more equity and gain three-times the expertise I would have thought, and we're only talking a 5% difference. I am an electrican myself, and I can certainly see the benefits of their product. Nail-in cable-clips are a pain in the arse, and take so much longer to nail in then their gun method would. Time is money, so that would save cost on jobs. Brilliant product. Does anyone know if the investment went through or not?

Nowhere in BS7671 does it state that clips used have to be non-conductive. It does state that cables placed in an area that might be a fire exit access area must be secured in such a way as to stop them dropping and obstructing access (the plastic insulator will burn, allowing the cable conductors to drop). The typical plastic cable clip would not be suitable, and indeed trainee electricians are taught that metal clips should be used, as they are fireproof. Either that or use metal conduit or metal tray systems. I CAN see the clip shown being quite useful in clip direct (method C in the regs), as it would be much faster than using hammer in (nail) plastic clips, but DeWalt already make a stapler (with metal clips) that does this very well indeed. As an electrician, I wouldn't buy this system shown.

Round three core cable (which is available here at nearly twice the price per metre) is rarely used, but seems be be the main choice in most of Europe. The main issue with flat twin and earth is that it is OK for long straight runs, but needs bigger (round) holes to penetrate barriers, is a real pain to place in curves and not so easy to seal as it enters boxes. I would much prefer it was banned and we used round cables.

A few mates niggled me over the use of so-called 'flex' cable (for example 3183Y 2.5mm) instead of Twin & Earth for wiring. Up until the 16th edition of BS7671 it was not permitted. This has led to a lot of older sparks saying it can't be used, even now. Some say it carries less current. It doesn't. It has the same CSA, albeit in thin strands. Technically, stranded wire carries more current at a lower resistance than solid core wires. It DOES need ferrules on the end when in screw in terminals (for sockets I prefer to use the Crabtree Instinct range which uses captured full contact clamps - so the screw does not dig directly in to the wire strands). The outer sheath of 3183Y is much softer, so does not provide as good a mechanical protection as twin & earth, but it's about time we started to use conduit more anyway, as that is far easier to maintain than clip direct. Yes, 3183Y does need to be clipped or run in conduits, but it is now becoming the cable of choice in commercial buildings. If it was unsafe, how come all of Europe, except us, use it in domestic dwellings? There are heavy duty versions of the flex as well.

The regulation they are talking about actually states that you need metal supports for cables, not plastic. So if there is a fire, the cables will be held for longer.

Absolutely. Manufaring this as a stand alone brand is idiotic, and a complete waste of time, energy, and capital. License it to the big names. Let them do all the leg work, and just cash the checks. The big brands already have the manufacturing capabilities. They already have the guns, so they would just have to make slight tweaks to already existing tech to use these staples. Really, the ONLY way to make any money off something like this, is licensing. Without that patent though, they have literally nothing. Investment in this is a HUGE risk. Huge returns IF the patent is granted. If it's not, then its money down the drain. Them selling their house to get to this point would have been an enormous red flag for me. Thats boneheaded nonsense to put your house up, when there's no protection what so ever. I hope they pull it off, but there are huge hurdles to clear for them.

The best answer to the patent problem in 2021 is: Get the product out as FAST AS POSSIBLE, and make it a brand before a certain Nation throws the knockoffs on the market. A small company can't really enforce a patent, what matters is the customer base prefering the real product, hence to get your product on the market the fastest way possible (ofc without a drop in quality).

Hmm that's a difficult one. I would have been more inclined to go for the ease and less stress of the experience of 3 dragons for just the 5% more. for only 50k more cost per million profit, having the 2 extra dragons included in that who have power and influence in many different areas I think would have been a smart investment. Nonetheless, a win either way and good luck to them both. I hope they do well.

All the comments saying ‘should have gone with the three’. It won’t be the dragons in the board meetings it will be their teams. That’s 3 sets of representatives all with their own ideas and future plans/expectations. Every time you report your figures, KPI’s etc you have to triple the amount of questions and correspondence. It’s far more time consuming. I’d have gone with just one Dragon personally.

Electrical design doesn’t take the installation side into account ....I have 45 years experience and I’m still bewildered by the lack of thought practical knowledge the designers have and most of it is plain common sense .Designers should have field experience,just like the guy who designed the clip ...well done ....three cheers 👍👍👍👍👍👍

@2.05 She made a false claim in mentioning fire regulations, these clips would not be suitable where those specific regulations come into play as they are not fire proof and will melt allowing the cable to fall or dangle, I am not taking away from the product itself but if decisions are made based on her pitch then she could be in a legal wrangle if it fails to sell and the investor wants to withdraw, she has given an exit strategy on a plate for them to do so and reclaim their investment.

I think you have to look at the specific product its suppose to replace. The item we saw had a single metal nail, and a plastic holder for the cable. That existing plastic holder would be just as prone to fire. So saying it needs to have a metal nail instead of a platic one isn't really saying much. Also there are plastics which are resistent to heat, silcon or ceramic based plastics would do the job if they could be made hard enough. It really depends on the details of the regulation you are refering to. Maybe it allows for most the cable's lenght to be supported by this product with the occasional metal based support, say every couple of meters.

Maybe it allows for most the cable's lenght to be supported by this product with the occasional metal based support, say every couple of meters.' In deed the regulation allows for this but that is not what she claimed, you would not even suggest it complies if you need another fire rated product with yours to ensure that, I am aware of this product and it does not meet the claim she made, therefore any agreement made as a legal exit hole because she made a false claim on the product, she has misinterpreted the regulation thinking it simply means you cannot run a loose cable, the regulation is clear in the cable support or containment itself has to maintain support for an extended period in the extreme heat or flame exposure of a fire if surface mounted, this means even if the cable itself has been reduced to its bare copper or the containment melted away that the supports will hold up what is left of the cable to keep them from entangling with the fire brigades equipment which btw is why it was introduced after several events of firepersons dying when their oxygen tanks, head equipment etc got caught in cabling hanging loose. These are not compliant to meet the regulation as she made out thus I stand by my point. PS I am an Electrical Engineer of over 30yrs, I know the specific regulations she refers to and can confidently say it does not meet them as she claims, It is a clear misinterpretation she has made regarding the regs.
