Good on you for not selling it to some "Healthcare" company that'll sell it for 10 grand a pop, or 9 after insurance.

Thanks! Current target price is €100 for the assembled version. That just about covers the production cost and assembly time, but not the development time.

But if I ask for any more, it might get difficult to finance for some families and difficult to justify for even more families (even though the therapy adherence goes way up with my device, but the parents don't really know that before they buy).

I don't have any certifications and stuff behind that, so insurance pays nothing for it...
