Me go first:

  • Most printer: we all know …
  • Keurig: a coffee pod machine that use one-time pod. They once refuse to use third party pod with a chip.
  • Juicero: a luxury juicer that squeeze juice from repack pod (which you can squeeze by hand). The machine will only work with pre-pack pod. You cannot make the machine work with your own food or vegetable.

You know any ? Any product, startup, dead or alive.

      My old man have a Blood Glucose Monitors, and i remember he ask me to buy test strips. It do not expensive, and any test strips brand does work with it, as long as it fit in the interface. No brand lock in so far.

      If you can get me a name brand, it would be best.

      I use blood glucose monitors and ive never seen this? Meter and strips are almost always separate and I think some drug stores even have generic strips that work on certain meters. (US)
