I just saw in the weekly flier for Walgreens (a drug store which also carries a *lot* of other merchandise, for those not familiar with it), an ad for an Eternalight.
However, it was a $3 AC plug-in LED night light. I haven't had time to check the store, but knowing Walgreens, I'd bet it's a Chinese piece 'o cr*p. :toilet:
But on to the obvious: isn't the name 'Eternalight' owned and copyrighted by Technology Associates?
We've all seen blatant rip-offs of name brand products by various foreign countries, but they *usually* don't steal the name....or do they? Usually, I thought, they just reverse engineer an American product, and sell it under another name. :nana:
This *really* bites, as I consider the EternaLight one the very best 'all purpose' flashlights of all time. I've given away at least a dozen EternaLight Ergos as gifts, and I own quite a number of them, myself.
Can anything be done about this blatant name rip-off? Especially since it's being sold though a well known brick and mortar store that is, AFAIK, a nationwide (USA) chain.
