He wrote us, the Hybrid Black works much better than the OpenBCI Cyton, and for about the same price:

«Hi Peter, thanks! I am only a “maker” and have no interest nor the time to make many more of these enclosures and sell them. I think that OpenBCI itself – i.e., the company – would be the most appropriate commercial entity to do this. The 3D design is available already under a CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, anyone interested in commercializing it can come and talk to me.

Having said that, I think that there are more interesting developments beyond OpenBCI, like the Mentalab and especially the Unicorn Hybrid Black. I recently bought the Unicorn, and so far I am very happy with it! It is a complete solution that works much better than the OpenBCI Cyton, and for about the same price. I might make a post about it soon…»
