Has anyone noticed Richard Farleigh looks like Prince Charming from Shrek 😂
I just watched Shrek 3 last night and you are 100% right
🤣
Hahaha that's awesome!
He's a good Oakington
I do now lol
They're not powered by water, they're *activated* by water, in other words there's a chemical already in there which reacts when water is added and produces an electric output. This isn't a green technology - it's just a battery with some water in it. Normal rechargeable batteries are more green than this because at least they avoid the landfill for longer.
Very important information, thanks for clarifying!
It's a great stepping stone though! Could be the start of something bigger give it 5 to 10 years of development and boom it could be something great
@Bitterman I know this bro bit that's just right now I always say you cant invent television until you've invented electricity this could just the start we have to start somewhere after all I personally think solar energy should be utilized more often
@@lukeellis758 you're not understanding. This is not the future. This is a farce. Richard was correct. Current battery technology has way surpassed this.
@Bitterman So this is basically the same thing as older car batteries or riding mower batteries where you had to occasionally top them off with water?
The water isn't suitable for fish to swim in, so for that reason I'm trout

For you JJK fans out there:
Tuna, tuna.

Richard Farley is usually quite a pragmatic and calm person. For him to get wound up like that, plus the nervous disposition of the pitch, says a lot.
Yeah, i read your comment and watched it again. He seems to have some ticks too.
He's like this because he knows about the market more than any other Dragon does and knows exactly what the person is trying to do.
Yeah correct its a con guys full of it

The water for the water powered batteries comes from the sweat on his face.
I can see you took this from the pyramid scheme business... but lol, you’re right
I knew I was gonna see this comment lol
Hahahaha
He was sweating as much as Barry was.
You beat me to it 😆
It's not "water powered". It is "water activated" and the water obviously dissolves some substance in the battery to make an electrolyte. That substance gets used up and ends up in the water which is poured down the sink. Not environmentally friendly, at all.
Any more or less than batteries in landfills?
@@B_Bodziak take into consideration the low power output "trickle" into the equation. It may be that it takes 10 water batteries to deliver the same energy of one high quality AA? I did not hear any info in the video regards amps, only 1.5v. but still a very interesting product and he should be praised, not kicked down, especially by Richard who is normally very nice.
Not necessarily.

Peter: I don't find it devious, I think it's just overvalued
Duncan: I don't care 😂
I don't think Peter would invest in this company even if it's $200k pounds for 100%. This dude's got practically nothing in that company worth anything other than that 5 year license.
@@stevengu1253 fr even then after the 5 years are up the business could literally crumble into nothing if they don’t renew the license
It seems like every 5 or 10 years someone "invents" the water battery.
The same thing being used since ancient Egyptian times, with some tweaks over the years.
I can't believe none of the dragons called out this scam technology.
@@nouton7432 I hope English is not your 1st language?
@UC-XbUU3TXvmKUyTbudrlghg Like people already pointed out in the comments, there are batteries out there (that have existed for years now) that use water (like this one) as a source to make the actual material that holds the energy to react (the water is not the fuel itself, fuel is the thing that holds the potential energy, so this is not), once that material exhaust its energy no matter how much water you pour into it, you won't get any more energy, so you can practically exchange any other liquid that contains hydrogen and oxygen, and bingo, you can make you material to react, and like you also point out, these batteries are not only expensive, they are also inefficient, and no eco-friendly, no amount of "development" or years will change that chemical reaction, that's why people selling this as "the future" are selling a scam.
This is equivalent of the machine that draws potable water out of thin air, the concept has been tried a thousand times, but you'll never make it work out, there is just so much water in the air, even in the most moist place ever, it will take you an eternity to make just a glass of water, so it will become the most expensive glass of water ever, so no matter how much "technology" you throw at that idea, you can't make something out of thin air, and people still claim is the future, and as many think they are discovering the wheel, while the idea, the concept, and the technology has been already fully developed years ago.
So people buy into these scams cause at first glance they work, they do what they promise, but not exactly as they claim, and it is known that the idea is a dead end, no improvement can be done to them, that's why no major company actually uses them, not because oil companies have unknown conspiracies going on.
So why aren’t we using them then?
@@notgoingout2234 because they're typically only suited for very low power applications and while some people think it's the water that's generating electricity, the water only acts as an electrolyte for a consumable metal inside.
So it's not some magical battery that turns water into power.
This must be Dragon’s Den in an alternate dimension because Peter is the good cop and Richard is the bad cop in this pitch
Peter prob just wants to set up against whatever richard says since that dinner party thimg with his wife

Richard Farleigh is usually such a gentleman and very respectful of the presenters. The reason he wasn't here was that he saw right through his bullshit, and I agree with Richard completely. Should anyone actually invent and patent a fully recyclable water activated battery with indefinite shelflife, he/she will be rich. Bill Gates rich!
100% Richard was absolutely spot on with this one, there's a reason why this guy was sweating like an absolute pig, he knew what he was pitching was garbage.
Yea. Amazon and Tesla wouldn’t be able to hold a candle to that worth.
No. He/she be dead. Jimmy Hoffa dead

Me: I quite like this product
Dragon: I'm out

😂
Lol
I swear Sarah Willingham does this..
Richard Farley was spot on about this guy, it looks like a total scam. The idea that his company was going to make improvements to battery technology is laughable.
Exactly, that's why the creator of the battery was not willing to go into business with Vivian - they knew that he'd not be able to improve on it enough for it to be viable for anything but a low current battery. I'm surprised Vivian didn't say that he was intending to develop his product for electric cars - why not go the whole ̶h̶o̶g̶ cow and really milk it!
He should have kept it to selling trickle powered toys instead.
Why would a scammer come in front of experts? Obviously he's just ignorant of science.
He's just delusional living in a dream.@@wowalamoiz9489
Peter really hates Richard 😂😂😂
Richard is far smarter
Richard is sigma male - the quiet effortless cool, and Peter hates that he has to try so hard in comparison
I wonder if Peter was instrumental in getting Richard off the show?
@@billtilford3047 …no I haven’t heard it was Peter, they say the BBC wanted an ‘ethnic’ looking dragon…in comes James Caan, who was a good dragon, as equally nice and soft spoken as Richard . Richard apparently got the most fan Mail during his time. His year on the show was enough to make him famous and instantly recognisable anyway so it did the job. He’s even appeared in the celebrity columns when he romanced Anthea Turner - so at least we know he’s not perfect lol
Tech rivals but Richard is obviously much more educated and informed in the core field.
Duncan is great.... "he thinks this, he thinks that... but at the end of the day... i dont care... i'm out".... LOL
Exactly, to the point.
Really wish Richard and Duncan were still on the show.
Doocan?
Agreed. Duncan in particular - not the same without him!
Does this guy realise that that's how battery acid is made lol.
So it's not recyclable because if you throw it away it's still contains active battery corrosive properties.

So, basically, he's selling cheap gadgets from China.
Indeed. All of his products are sold world wide, sometimes with a little change in design, but the same over all. I checked their website and many products are below $5 Canadian retail
It's nothing more than a gimmick. The water doesn't provide any power, it's just an electrolyte that dissolves some salts, forming a very weak battery.
@@DiabloOutdoors I guess that's how he amasses sales. Cheap, so end-user accessibility. So he is a Con-artist but through a collective through a toy company that he uses as his trojan horse for testing his products/ideas etc.
Wow
@@netweed09 most probably
This is my favourite Dragon line up.
I am afraid Richard Farleigh is correct. And he always is. The battery is a scam, it’s just water dissolve sth inside then provide mobile ions start some reactions etc. He works with professors in the Oxford University for tech start up projects, he is indeed an expert compare to Peter.
Nobody is always right first of all. Second, that might the reason why Richard was out for good... Going personal on the character of entrepreneurs (who were by the way pre selected) is obviously not good for the image of the Dragons and the TV format. Many people in the comment do not get that this goes on national tv and while entrepreneurs are usually ready to be criticised on their business, no entrepreneur in his right mind would risk his personal reputation.
@@andrewalberti9121 There have been many instances in the course of the production of this show where the investors have pursued personally the presenters - they do this quite regularly, although I happen to think that Richard Farleigh's comment is correct considering the state of play of battery technology. I think the show is ok 'entertainment' but most companies should not bother presenting on this show and head directly to banks for loans, angel investors directly or obtain funding privately. The only real reason to be on the show is for media exposure in my view to push a cause, or for the purposes of more investor interest elsewhere.
Richard is normally so nice, really layed the smack down on this one!
This was definitely my favourite dragon lineup.

@@lewisb85 these “green energy” products get tons of government subsidies. Basically, free money… pushing inefficient products/gadgets
Not entirely. It is possible to so focused on your own product you don't look at the competition (it's only a distraction which you can't do anything about), but when you come to VALUE your company, you have to.
Obviously, it all comes down to energy density, and sustainability.
Or the guy is just clueless about the industry. No need for the accusations tbh.
Vivian is no longer part of the company; terminated as director in 2016. And the company has around 32k in capital and reserves in 2020. Which is more than half of what they had the year before that.
Cool story bro. Like they just told everyone their capital and reserves.

I worked for a ferry company back in the 90's and they used similar batteries then to power harbour navigation lights so the technology has been around for quite a time.
It's because what he showed is just a regular battery
That was probably Lead Acid batteries which need topping up with distilled water regularly after recharging.

I’m really sad he was let go by the programme, he was confused and shocked about the decision too.

@@SRPC21 From what has been revealed online, BBC got rid of him because they were seeking a more ethnically diverse panel of dragons. At least that is the rumour and what is stated on the dragons wiki page.
@@jackrules24 A fair point, and just to bring it up, if 1 has to be cut, Peter Jones might have made more money for the program over the years, and by that fact alone would be weighed more, than "who is nice" for the investors of the show
A battery that is only useable with products also produced by this company…real useful
Apple had that idea first.
If Richard said the sky was blue Peter would say it was pink
Exactly!
Richard "hold one a second I'm gonna fix my hair one more time then I'm ready to have my say"
🤣🤣🤣
This is; he can really back it up with proper substance.
Unlike Duncan who tries the same thing in effect but with the grace of a sweaty woodcutter in the Amazon to cover up his lack of actual product knowledge. Yes,, Mr ''Does the electric toothbrush need a battery?'' himself!
Here is how to make one if you are interested:-
One electrode of copper. One electrode of zinc, Some crystals of citric acid. Put them in a plastic tube.
See experiments running a low power device using an orange or even a potato. That is all.
I always treat entrepreneurs with non-patented exclusivity deals with caution as there always seems to be a sense of desparation and sunk-cost fallacy going on. Guarantee if you asked this guy when the 5-year contract expires he'd say something like "the beginning of next year". Same was true with the vitimin candy and the gps kids watch
Exactly what it is.
Well, based on what he's told the Dragons, at most, his contract has 2 years remaining time because he's already did 3 years of distribution and got numbers for that. So yeah, terrible investment. I wouldn't give him a dollar.
He WAS trying to pull the wool over them and Richard was the only one who caught it. Also he probably made his previous sells by telling the buyers that it was water powered or just hiding it and telling them it was a "water cell battery" when it was only a gimmick of a con artist.
Love the old episodes.Thanks D.D.
Richard: You trying to fool us! >:(
Peter: *Disagrees with Richard because he doesn't like him*
Duncan: I DUN CARE, AM OOT
His amount of sweat could power a battery🔋😰😂
Lol, you could clearly smell that those weren't nerves - that was just the sheer anxiety of a scammer knowing his ass would very-likely get found out.

So instead of pitching an actual hydrogen fuel cell... he pitched a water battery?? Hell, lead acid batteries use water and are fully recyclable
Exactly. He's coming out of no-where among all those researching students Richard mentioned and already establish Mega-companies like Duracell and thinks he can eat at the round table, lol.
Lead Acid batteries use sulphuric acid.
@@fly9wheel you put water in them though
7:40 It might work as a battery, technically. But its a very weak battery. I’d be interested to see it’s power and duration (amp hours?) compared to an AA battery.
The moment he says it can’t substitute an AA battery... I’m out
Even if it can, you shouldn't invest in that company because the company doesn't own the patent to the product. If the inventor decides to not give him a renewal of the contract, he's bust. The entire company's completely worthless.
It would probably power an LED for about 30 seconds.
6:58 "Selling something and making no money is easy. Anyone can do it." Duncan's book is Anyone Can Do it. In stores now. That's not what he was talking about though...
His book is crap though.
The question is, what is the internal resistance of that water cell, its like yeah you can get 5V out of a potato, but the internal resistance is in the range of 30kohms and therefore reduces how much power you can get out of it. That being said I did see someone powering a calculator with a potato array haha.

To be fair to him, his business is still trading well and it looks like he sold it in 2016. No sign of water batteries however!
@@666m111 Yep; anyone can sell using an obscure vehicle from a Chinese importing company for low-priced products.
It's just a battery, you add water to dampen the dry electrolyte. It's cool, and may last longer than a convenientianal batteries which dry out much quicker, but it works the same as recharables batteries which lose life span every time you refill them.
£3.8 million!!! This is going to be a lunchtime treat!
Peters wrong, it's 4 million.
20 * 200,000 = 4 mil
Afraid you’re both wrong. 3.8 million is the correct, pre-money valuation. The business is (supposedly) worth 3.8 million. With an investor’s cash, it would then be worth 4 million but they’re discussing what it’s worth pre-investment.
The cash doesn’t go FROM the dragon TO the shareholder - it’s for newly issued shares.
@@tgooda4672 5/100 * x = 200,000
x = 20 * 200,000
4 million.
Can you show me what calculation you used? Generally interested, thanks.
David they're talking about a situation where somebody will pay 200k to own 5% of the business including the 200k cash injection. This would mean the business with the 200k cash injection is worth 4 mil, and the business without the 200k (i.e. the business as it currently is today that's being brought to the table) is worth 4 mil - 200k = 3.8mil. So it's worth 3.8 mil before the investment ('pre money') and 4 mil after it.
This is always referred to incorrectly in the den. The dragons will definitely know this, I can only assume it's done for the purposes of tv (and on some really early clips you do hear them talk about pre and post money).
Richards honesty is why Dragons den producers didn't like him
I actually thought the opposite. I like him as a Dragon but you could see here how uncomfortable he was with confrontation. I think the producer's want someone who is more willing to go in on people, here he seemed to be fumbling for words and unable to make eye contact.

@Paul Blackman Makes sense. His valuation says that the £200k would be 5% of the new value of the company. Hence the present value is £3.8m.
Put a copper and a zinc nail into a potatoe and you have a battery. So you could sell potatoes as fuel.

I agree; I was looking for this comment as I don’t understand the £4m v £3.8m discrepancy. One could argue that the offered 5% direct ownership of the company would mean a 5% indirect ownership of the £200k received by the company via the investment, but even that argument would only result in a £10k difference in perspective, not a £200k difference in perspective.
@@matthewbell4273 If you invest £200k in it, your £200k will be 5% of the value. So the value _then_ is £4M. But that value includes the £200k that you just put into it, so the value before your investment must have been £3.8M.
