but do we know anyone who might accidentally lose it, and someone who might be fortunate enough to be in the right place, right time, to be able to find it?

I honestly don't know the logistics of making something like the empeg, i guess the hard part would be sourcing the components or finding someone to make the sub assemblies and the programming of chips etc,

putting it together is the easy bit, much easier than some stuff i had to build when i worked for an electronic manufacturer.

ok, so i'm probably waaay out of touch, but what would say, the main pcb in the empeg cost to make? surely someone has the cad's somewhere and it's a case of getting it printed, components fitted and the code installed?

even if this is all possible i prob wouldn't have the money to do it, but i'm curious!
