EKEN Power Bands = Another Crappy Scam

Check it out. These EKEN Power Bands are using the same nonsense as the Power Balance range of crappy products that I wrote about in one of my first posts.

What are they? Well they are just pieces of silicon fashioned into a bracelet that you can wear around your wrist. That's all. I'm sad to see that the Hurricanes are endorsing such rubbish. But perhaps thats why they are playing so shit this season. Coincidence?

It's all total a total scam. EKEN claims to use nano Frequency Infusion Technology (wtf?) to ensure that each  product receives a highly concentrated dose of the required frequencies (their words). I'm not making this up. Really look. This is a classic example of taking scientific sounding words and mashing them together to make it sound high tech and fancy.

So perhaps it is worth going through this a little. Especially since scamers seem to be using this word frequency a lot now. It's almost up there with quantum and energy in it's frequency (haha) of use in the pseudo-science scam marketplace. What is a frequency exactly? Frequency refers to the period of oscillation of an oscillating system. If there is nothing oscillating then there can be no frequency.
for example. The second hand on an analogue watch ticks with a frequency of 1 Hz. That means it moves once every second. The Rock radio station has a frequency of 96.5 kHz. That means that the electro magnetic radiation carrying the signal has a peak every 0.0000103 seconds. And that the electrons in the broadcast antenna producing that signal are oscillating at half that period.
The word frequency has no meaning unless it is applied to something oscillating. People do not have frequencies. Nature does not have a frequency and neither do holograms.

These crappy bands coat $90 if you buy them off the site. And they are sold in a lot of stores. Including Rebel Sport. If you really need a magical rubber bracelet to improve your whatever. Go buy, and wear, a rubber band. Or better yet get one of these! They are made in the same factory. Using the same process as the Power Balance bracelets (and maybe the EKEN bands too. I don't know).

Whenever some product is using the word frequency as part of it's marketing. Be Skeptical. This should raise a red flag. And then you can ask the right questions. What frequency? What's oscillating? What's the power source? ect. ect.
