So... Another dehumidifier... We've been over this before.
Many times.
Many many times.
It's wild that people keep falling for this same scam.
Hardly a scam. There's nothing to insert money into.
This is just empty hype
You don't think they're going to try to sell these? You're falling for the scam already.
The scam where I buy a shipping container at some point?
The one where you are scientifically illiterate and can't spot a scam to stop it and possibly allow public funds to it. So, yeah maybe you will be chipping in for that shipping container.
Because I'm not buying an overpriced humidifier?
So you do know is a scam... Geez what was the point of all that? Thanks for wasting my time.

It really is. I've seen at least a handful of these on Kickstarter before, and before Kickstarter was a thing I'm pretty sure I saw something about "revolutionary new technology" like this in a TV documentary.
