You wanna talk about poorly run businesses? Why are they sending out their prototype if they only have one and it’s so important? At least make two of them.
They didn’t only have one Prototype but this was their best and most recent one, you also generally don’t copy prototypes until you are 99% to completion. Additionally they trusted LTT to send the Prototype back in a timely manner once they were done testing, as you would expect from any company with even a speck of professionalism.
I’d guess in the time the Prototype was away they either worked on other things (Packaging/Manufacturing/Marketing Solutions for the final release?) or went on a planned short Vacation.
Buddy are you trolling just for the sake of trolling or is that an genuine POV of yours.
If you are genuine then hear me out.
When a small company makes a prototype it is 1st to test, iterate and perfect. The 2nd job of a near perfect prototype is to promote the company to investors and hopefully garner money for the next step ie perfecting the process to make a finished product.
A small company notwithstanding even a big company like Nokia makes a single prototype to begin with and then replicate it to perfect the production process.
The second job is especially important for a startup who put all their money to make a prototype. The reason they gave it to LTT was for promotion. LTT dissed the company that the product is not viable but didn’t highlight that the concept of perfected and made cheaper can become a viable option for water cooling. On top of that they sold it without permission, under the guise of charity, which I doubt even happened.
I would love to see them pull something like this with any of the big companies. That is an sure shot way to corporate suicide.
If they can’t think of pulling something like this with a big company they should have thought twice before doing it with a small company.
When your defense of LMG boils down to “anyone would be stupid to trust them with something important”…
And yes, it was stupid to trust them and I hope no one else does going forward. But it doesn’t change that LMG were the ones to screw up and did so in so many ways it’s comical. Either they don’t know what they are doing, don’t care, or some combination of the two.

Or more digital design for tweaks and simulations, waiting to validate against the prototype when it came back
