Aren't there exceptions for small, low volume, and one could even say "experimental" products, from these oppressive regulations? 4,000 Vampire boards is pushing the envelope of only being a small production hobbyist product, so I can see how they might be painting themselves into a corner if they get too popular and sell too many boards, but perhaps there are no exceptions for such products in the EU and UK, and all boards must meet every electronic product regulation and registration?
