No, but I also haven't tried wrapping rabbit fur around my pipes to reduce scale build-up.
There have been enough scientific studies on this to settle it.

Have you tried the tools you rubbish? No?
You can't tell how well a tool will last by looking at it.
But you can a snake oil product...

Yes. It didn't work, not in the slightest. Indeed not only did it not work, but there is no conceivable mechanism by which it could work. The building maintenance manager who fitted one at the factory where I worked, and who stopped using the permutit water softeners in consequence, caused thousands of pounds worth of damage to glass washers and industrial equipment. He was sacked for incompetence.

Well: Looking at the specification which says it consumes 30 milliamps (that's presumably at 230 volts?) so it uses 230 volts x 0.03 amps =3D
6.9 watts.The specification also say it operates on audio frequencies from 0.5 to 5 kilohertz.
So maybe someone has given this gadget a 'fair shake' ? (That's an attempt at a pun by the way ................. shake the water so the stuff doesn't deposit ...... !!!!). Groan?
Apart from that IIRC this type of thing was debunked on a North American consumer oriented TV show. But that version was probably 115 volts.
