I need to trademark a name for the EH/$ unit.

Hmmmm... How many hours per $ make up one (EH/$) unit? Or am I misunderstanding the cocept?
For $50 I would have to have at least 5 hours of enjoyment and probably 10 to be satisfied that it wasn't a total waste of time. For $100 I tend to justify things more so my scales are not fair
Then there is the shelf space factor. I have a hard time throwing out/donating to others useless/disappointing items that cost over $10. I feel that I am just passing on my bad decisions to some unsuspecting soul. So the $50 items in question sit on the shelf taunting me for quite a wile. Occasionally I am lucky enough that an acquaintance actually desires to take said item off my hands but usually I am not so lucky and have to close my eyes and heave it in the trash.
But I like the idea of the (EH/$) unit. You should pursue it.
