I think most people will just use the manufacturing date code. Any
disadvantage weighs on the "producer" that way but only at the 13 Aug
transition point. Get real - do what is practicable.
People seem to be getting very het up over this "placed on the market"
issue. When the EMC directive came about with similar cut offs no one
batted an eye lid.

So to add my ha'pennys worth....
If we take it that the requirement to mark up is based on the point at
which it goes on sale (i.e. just before it goes on the shelf to at your
local retailer), does this not mean a major headache for your local
electrical store? For example, say someone makes a piece of EEE but
because they aren't selling it themselves they don't mark it. This then
means that when it gets delivered to your local retailer they then have
to run around and put stickers on it???
So my question/argument is what difference does it really make? Would it
not be easier to just assume that simply when a product is made after
13th August 2005 (or whenever) it gets marked at the point it is made.
Then nobody down the line has the hassle of "is this marked? is it not
marked?".

Hi Genny, JohnB
John will probably beat me on this one yet April 2005 would be for WEEE
compliance. Remember this was supposed to be 2004.08
