Since following this thread I've been bothered by the notion - surely I remember the Quinetic technology first appearing under the MK brand name ages ago.
A bit of Googling indeed suggests an MK "Echo" product appeared on the market in 2008:
Does anyone know how the product transmogrified from there to the Quinetic/TLC partnership, if indeed that's what happened?
Or maybe the German company EnOcean mentioned in the article licensed a different enterprise?

There is a "not for sale in Germany" notice on all Quinetic products on TLC website. You could be onto something!
 
Interesting article, thanks for posting it!
I was sure I had used them before 2008 but on a firm I was working for so they purchased them.
I have no idea how long they have been about for but in one guise or another they have been about since the early to mid 2000's as I started for that company in 1999 and it went under in 2005.
Could have been under EnOcean brand I suppose but it's too long ago for my grey matter to remember!

They are available in France and used extensively in renovation work with exposed internal stone walls, must have installed over 100 and never had a problem, trouble is I can't remember the brand, and can't find them now on my old wholesalers web site, but I am sure it was Quinetic.

Just remembered the first ones had a coin battery in them, this changed within a year of purchase and they became kinetically operated.
