OK, you're innocent, if that's the case.

Let me save you some trouble.

Every boat show has a few 10 x 10 booths with nutty people who promote
their quirky stuff. You know, those miracle repair adhesives, or the stuff
you wipe on and it makes your 20-year-old boat look new for all eternity.
When it rises to the level of a guy selling quack machines for $1000s, then
it is not just nutty, it is a concerted effort at deception.

You don't want testimonials, anyway. They are insufficient support for
claims that lack basic physical credibility.

What you want is performance curves from an independent lab. BTUs/hour
pumped versus ambient temp and watt-hours consumed. But don't expect to
get that. This guy can't even compose a consistent specification himself.
