DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION | GrowLife, Inc. (“GrowLife” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware and is headquartered in Kirkland, Washington. The Company was founded in 2012 with the Closing of the Agreement and Plan of Merger with SGT Merger Corporation. The Company’s goal of becoming the nation’s largest cultivation facility service provider for the production of organics, herbs and greens and plant-based medicines has not changed. The Company’s mission is to best serve more cultivators in the design, build-out, expansion and maintenance of their facilities with products of high quality, exceptional value and competitive price. Through a nationwide network of knowledgeable representatives, regional centers and its e-commerce website, GrowLife provides essential and hard-to-find goods including media (i.e., farming soil), industry-leading hydroponics equipment, organic plant nutrients, and thousands more products to specialty grow operations across the United States. The Company primarily sells through its wholly owned subsidiary, GrowLife Hydroponics, Inc. GrowLife companies distribute and sell over 15,000 products through its e-commerce distribution channel, GrowLifeEco.com, and through our regional retail storefronts. GrowLife and its business units are organized and directed to operate strictly in accordance with all applicable state and federal laws. On June 7, 2013, GrowLife Hydroponics completed the purchase of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“RMC”), and Evergreen Garden Center, LLC, a Maine limited liability company (“EGC”). The effective date of the purchase was June 7, 2013. On October 3, 2017, the Company closed the acquisition of 51% of the Purchased Assets from David Reichwein, a Pennsylvania resident, GIP International Ltd, a Hong Kong corporation and DPR International LLC, a Pennsylvania limited liability corporation. The Purchased Assets include intellectual property, copy rights and trademarks related to reflective tiles and flooring. The Company did not acquire business, customer list or employees. The Company acquired its 51% interest in the Purchased Assets for $400,000. The Company funded equipment and rent of an office lease. On February 16, 2018, the Company purchased the remaining 49% of the Purchased Assets in exchange for a one-time payment of $250,000. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had recorded investment in purchased assets of $302,689. On October 17, 2017, the Company informed by Alpine Securities Corporation (“Alpine”) that Alpine has demonstrated compliance with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) Rule 6432 and Rule 15c2-11 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result, Alpine may initiate an unpriced quotation for the Company’s common stock. The Company expects to file an amended application with the OTC Markets to list the Company’s common stock on the OTCQB once the minimum share price of $0.01 per share is achieved. The Company currently trades on the OTC Pink Sheet market. On February 18, 2016, the Company’s common stock resumed unsolicited quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board after receiving clearance from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) on the Company’s Form 15c2-11. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
GOING CONCERN | The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred net losses of $5,320,974 and $7,694,684 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Our net cash used in operating activities was $2,082,493 and $1,212,192 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company anticipates that it will record losses from operations for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2017, our accumulated deficit was $129,731,305. The Company has experienced recurring operating losses and negative operating cash flows since inception, and has financed its working capital requirements during this period primarily through the recurring issuance of convertible notes payable and advances from a related party. The audit report prepared by our independent registered public accounting firm relating to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 filed with the SEC on March 28, 2018 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS | Basis of Presentation - Principles of Consolidation Cash and Cash Equivalents Accounts Receivable and Revenue - Inventories - Property and Equipment - Long Lived Assets Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments - Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, investment in a related party, accounts payables, accrued expenses, due to related party, notes payable, and convertible notes approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities. Derivative financial instruments - Sales Returns - Stock Based Compensation Net (Loss) Per Share - Dividend Policy Use of Estimates - Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recent accounting pronouncements, other than those below, issued by the FASB, the AICPA and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material effect on the Company’s present or future financial statements. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2015-11, Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which affects reporting entities that measure inventory using either the first-in, first-out or average cost method. Specifically, the guidance requires that inventory be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable cost of completion, disposal, and transportation. This adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business, to assist with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for transactions not reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which reduces the diversity in practice on how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this pronouncement. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which requires a lessee, in most leases, to initially recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within with those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this pronouncement. In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Scope of Modification Accounting. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 (ASU 2016-09), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting |

Notes to Financial Statements | |
TRANSACTIONS WITH CANX USA, LLC AND LOGIC WORKS LLC | Transactions with CANX, LLC and Logic Works LLC On November 19, 2013, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with CANX, a Nevada limited liability company. Under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX formed Organic Growth International, LLC (“OGI”), a Nevada limited liability company, for the purpose of expanding the Company’s operations in its current retail hydroponic businesses and in other synergistic business verticals and facilitating additional funding for commercially financeable transactions of up to $40,000,000. The Company initially owned a non-dilutive 45% share of OGI and the Company could acquire a controlling share of OGI as provided in the Joint Venture Agreement. In accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX entered into a Warrant Agreement whereby the Company delivered to CANX a warrant to purchase 140,000,000 shares of the Company common stock that is convertible at $0.033 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the warrant. The five-year warrant expires November 18, 2018. Also, in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, on February 7, 2014 the Company issued an additional warrant to purchase 100,000,000 shares of our common stock that is convertible at $0.033 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the warrant. The five-year warrant expires February 6, 2019. GrowLife received the $1 million as a convertible note in December 2013, received the $1.3 million commitment but not executed and by January 2014 OGI had Letters of Intent with four investment and acquisition transactions valued at $96 million. Before the deals could close, the SEC put a trading halt on our stock on April 10, 2014, which resulted in the withdrawal of all transactions. The business disruption from the trading halt and the resulting class action and derivative lawsuits ceased further investments with the OGI joint venture. The Convertible Note was converted into GrowLife, Inc. common stock as of the year ended December 31, 2016. On July 10, 2014, the Company closed a Waiver and Modification Agreement, Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement, Secured Credit Facility and Secured Convertible Note with CANX and Logic Works LLC, a lender and shareholder of the Company. The Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement with CANX modified the Joint Venture Agreement dated November 19, 2013 to provide for (i) up to $12,000,000 in conditional financing subject to review by GrowLife and approval by OGI for business growth development opportunities in the legal cannabis industry for up to nine months, subject to extension; (ii) up to $10,000,000 in working capital loans, with each loan requiring approval in advance by CANX; (iii) confirmed that the five year warrants, subject to adjustment, at $0.033 per share for the purchase of 140,000,000 and 100,000,000 were fully earned and were not considered compensation for tax purposes by the Company; (iv) granted CANX five year warrants, subject to adjustment, to purchase 300,000,000 shares of common stock at the fair market price of $0.033 per share as determined by an independent appraisal; (v) warrants as defined in the Agreement related to the achievement of OGI milestones; and (vi) a four year term, subject to adjustment. The Company entered into a Secured Convertible Note and Secured Credit Facility dated June 25, 2014 with Logic Works whereby Logic Works agreed to provide up to $500,000 in funding. Each funding required approval in advance by Logic Works, provided interest at 6% with a default interest of 24% per annum and requires repayment by June 26, 2016. The Note is convertible into common stock of the Company at the lesser of $0.0070 or (B) twenty percent (20%) of the average of the nine (3) lowest daily VWAPs occurring during the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date on which Logic Works elects to convert all or part of this 6% Convertible Note, subject to adjustment as provided in the Note. The 6% Convertible Note is collateralized by the assets of the Company. OGI was incorporated on January 7, 2014 in the State of Nevada and had no business activities as of December 31, 2017. |

Notes to Financial Statements | |
DERIVATIVE LIABILITY | In April 2008, the FASB issued a pronouncement that provides guidance on determining what types of instruments or embedded features in an instrument held by a reporting entity can be considered indexed to its own stock for the purpose of evaluating the first criteria of the scope exception in the pronouncement on accounting for derivatives. This pronouncement was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (BCF). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20. Debt with Conversion and Other Options. In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. The debt is convertible at the lesser of 65% of the fair value of the Company’s common stock or $0.009 requiring the conversion feature to be bifurcated from the host debt contract and accounting for separately as a derivative, resulting in periodic revaluations. Derivative liability as of December 31, 2017 is as follows: Carrying Fair Value Measurements Using Inputs Amount at Financial Instruments Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 December 31, 2017 Liabilities: Derivative Instruments $ - $ 2,660,167 $ - $ 2,660,167 Total $ - $ 2,660,167 $ - $ 2,660,167 For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded non-cash income of $496,036 related to the “change in fair value of derivative” expense related to its 6%, 7% and 10% convertible notes. Derivative liability as of December 31, 2016 is as follows: Carrying Fair Value Measurements Using Inputs Amount at Financial Instruments Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 December 31, 2016 Liabilities: Derivative Instruments $ - $ 2,701,559 $ - $ 2,701,559 Total $ - $ 2,701,559 $ - $ 2,701,559 For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded non-cash income of $1,324,384 related to the “change in fair value of derivative” expense related to its 6%, 7% and 18% convertible notes. 7% Convertible Notes As of December 31, 2016, the Company had outstanding 7% convertible notes with a remaining balance of $250,000 that the Company determined had an embedded derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $1,495,495. 6% Convertible Notes As of December 31, 2016, the Company had outstanding unsecured 6% convertible notes for $330,295 that the Company determined had an embedded derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $1,206,064. Funding from TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”). The First TCA SPA The Second TCA SPA Amendment to the First TCA SPA Issuance of Preferred Stock to TCA TCA’s Forbearance In furtherance of TCA’s forbearance, effective as of May 4, 2016, the Company issued Second Replacement Debenture A in the principal amount of $150,000 and Second Replacement Debenture B in the principal amount of $2,681,210 (collectively, the “Second Replacement Debentures”). Per the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement, the Second Replacement Debentures were combined, and apportioned into two separate replacement debentures. The Second Replacement Debentures were intended to act in substitution for and to supersede the debentures in their entirety. It was the intent of the Company and TCA that while the Second Replacement Debentures replace and supersede the debentures, in their entirety, they were not in payment or satisfaction of the debentures, but rather were the substitute of one evidence of debt for another without any intent to extinguish the old debt. As of September 30, 2016, the maximum number of shares subject to conversion under the Second Replacement Debentures was 19,401,389. This is an approximation. The estimation of the maximum number of shares issuable upon the conversion of the Second Replacement Debentures was calculated using an estimated average price of $.0036 per share. The Second Replacement Debentures contemplate TCA entering into debt purchase agreement(s) with third parties whereby TCA may, at its election, sever, split, divide or apportion the Second Replacement Debentures to accomplish the repayment of the balance owed to TCA by Company. The Second Replacement Debentures are convertible at 85% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock during the five (5) business days immediately prior to a conversion date. In connection with the above agreements, the parties acknowledged and agreed that certain advisory fees previously paid to TCA as provided in the SPAs in the amount of $1,500,000 were added and included within the principal balance of the Second Replacement Debentures. The advisory fees related to financial, merger and acquisition and regulatory services provided to the Company. The conversion price discount on the Second Replacement Debentures did not apply to the advisory fees added to the Second Replacement Debentures. TCA also agreed to surrender its Series B Preferred Stock in exchange for the $1,500,000 being added to the Second Replacement Debenture. As more particularly described below, the Company remained in debt to TCA for the principal amount of $1,500,000. The remaining $1,400,000 of principal debt was assigned to Old Main Capital, LLC The Company intends to use the funds generated from the Chicago Venture transaction to fuel its business operations and business plans which, in turn, will presumably generate revenues sufficient to avoid another default in the remaining TCA obligations. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient funds through the Chicago Venture transaction and/or generate sales sufficient to service the remaining TCA debt then the Company will be unable to avoid another default. Failure to operate in accordance with the various agreements with TCA could result in the cancellation of these agreements, result in foreclosure on the Company’s assets in an event of default which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. On July 9, 2015, the Company valued the conversion feature as a derivative liability of this senior secured convertible redeemable debenture at $888,134 and discounted debt by $700,000 and recorded interest expense of $188,134. The Company valued the derivative liability of this debenture at $888,134. At the inception of the Replacement Debentures, the embedded derivative liability was remeasured at fair value and the Company recorded a net gain of $420,822. At inception, the Company valued the conversion feature of the Replacement Debentures as a derivative liability in the amount of $979,716 The amount was recorded as a discount to debt and will be amortized over the life of the debentures. As of December 31, 2016, the Company remaining debt was below $1,500,000 and does not include a derivative liability. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
EQUITY | Authorized Capital Stock The Company has authorized 6,010,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 6,000,000,000 are shares of voting common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 10,000,000 are shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. On October 24, 2017 the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to increase the authorized shares of common stock from 3,000,000,000 to 6,000,000,000 shares. Non-Voting Preferred Stock Under the terms of our articles of incorporation, the Company’s board of directors is authorized to issue shares of non-voting preferred stock in one or more series without stockholder approval. The Company’s board of directors has the discretion to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, of each series of non-voting preferred stock. The purpose of authorizing the Company’s board of directors to issue non-voting preferred stock and determine the Company’s rights and preferences is to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of non-voting preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions, future financings and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or could discourage a third party from seeking to acquire, a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Other than the Series B and C Preferred Stock discussed below, there are no shares of non-voting preferred stock presently outstanding and we have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock. Certificate of Elimination for Series B and C Preferred Stock On October 24, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate of Elimination with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to eliminate the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock of the Company. None of the authorized shares of either the Series B or Series C Preferred Stock were outstanding. The Certificate of Elimination, effective upon filing, had the effect of eliminating from the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, all matters set forth in the Certificate of Designations of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock with respect to each respective series, which were both previously filed by the Company with the Secretary of State on October 22, 2015. Accordingly, the 150,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 51 shares of Series C Preferred Stock previously reserved for issuance under their respective Certificates of Designation resumed their status as authorized but unissued shares of undesignated preferred stock of the Company upon filing of the Certificate of Elimination. Common Stock Unless otherwise indicated, all of the following sales or issuances of Company securities were conducted under the exemption from registration as provided under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (and also qualified for exemption under 4(5), formerly 4(6) of the Securities Act of 1933, except as noted below).

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
STOCK OPTIONS | Description of Stock Option Plan On October 23, 2017, the Company’s Shareholders authorized a Stock Incentive Plan whereby a maximum of 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock could be granted in the form of Non-Qualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Stock-Based Awards. The Company has outstanding unexercised stock option grants totaling 56,000,000 shares as of December 31, 2017. The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-8 to register 100,000,000 shares of Company’s common stock related to the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan. Determining Fair Value under ASC 505 The Company records compensation expense associated with stock options and other equity-based compensation using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model for estimating fair value of stock options granted under our plan. The Company amortizes the fair value of stock options on a ratable basis over the requisite service periods, which are generally the vesting periods. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The Company estimates the volatility of our common stock based on the historical volatility of its own common stock over the most recent period corresponding with the estimated expected life of the award. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black Scholes-Merton option valuation model on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term equal to the expected life of the award. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model and adjusts share-based compensation for changes to the estimate of expected equity award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience. The effect of adjusting the forfeiture rate is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed. Stock Option Activity During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company had the following stock option activity: On June 28, 2017, the Company’s Compensation Committee granted four advisory committee members each an option to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan at an exercise price of $0.009 per share, the fair market price on June 28, 2017.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | The Company has incurred losses since inception, which have generated net operating loss carryforwards. The net operating loss carryforwards arise from United States sources. Pretax losses arising from United States operations were approximately $5,300,000 and $7,700,000 and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $18,000,000, which expire in 2021-2031. Because it is not more likely than not that sufficient tax earnings will be generated to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards, a corresponding valuation allowance of approximately $7,100,000 was established as of December 31, 2017. Additionally, under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amounts of, and benefits from, net operating losses may be limited in certain circumstances, including a change in control. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code generally imposes an annual limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that may be used to offset taxable income when a corporation has undergone significant changes in its stock ownership. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to utilize any net operating loss carryforwards in the future. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company’s effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate principally due to net operating losses, warrants issued for services, change in fair value of derivative and debt discount. The principal components of the Company’s deferred tax assets at December 31, 2017 and 2016 are as follows: 2017 2016 U.S. operations loss carry forward and state at statutory rate of 40% $ 7,154,699 $ 6,704,362 Less valuation allowance 7,154,699 (6,704,362 ) Net deferred tax assets - - Change in valuation allowance $ 7,154,699 $ (6,704,362 ) A reconciliation of the United States Federal Statutory rate to the Company’s effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 is as follows: 2017 2016 Federal statutory rate -34.0 % -34.0 % State income tax rate -6.0 % -6.0 % Change in valuation allowance 40.0 % 40.0 % Effective tax rate 0.0 % 0.0 % The Company’s tax returns for 2012 to 2017 are open to review by the Internal Revenue Service. |

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POL21
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2017 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). |
Principles of Consolidation | The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Inter-Company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of nine months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit. |
Accounts Receivable and Revenue | Revenue is recognized on the sale of a product when the product is shipped, which is when the risk of loss transfers to our customers, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collection of the sale is reasonably assured. A product is not shipped without an order from the customer and the completion of credit acceptance procedures. The majority of our sales are cash or credit card; however, we occasionally extend terms to our customers. Accounts receivable are reviewed periodically for collectability. |
Inventories | Inventories are recorded on a first in first out basis. Inventory consists of raw materials, purchased finished goods and components held for resale. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. The reserve for inventory was $20,000 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. |
Property and Equipment | Property and equipment are stated at cost. Assets acquired held under capital leases are initially recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments discounted at the implicit interest rate or the fair value of the asset. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of five years. Assets acquired under capital lease are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life or the lease term. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Long Lived Assets | The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment annually or when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results. |
Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments | ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a nine-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The nine levels are defined as follows: Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, investment in a related party, accounts payables, accrued expenses, due to related party, notes payable, and convertible notes approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date. |
Sales Returns | We allow customers to return defective products when they meet certain established criteria as outlined in our sales terms and conditions. It is our practice to regularly review and revise, when deemed necessary, our estimates of sales returns, which are based primarily on actual historical return rates. We record estimated sales returns as reductions to sales, cost of goods sold, and accounts receivable and an increase to inventory. Returned products which are recorded as inventory are valued based upon the amount we expect to realize upon its subsequent disposition. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there was no reserve for sales returns, which are minimal based upon our historical experience. |
Stock Based Compensation | The Company has share-based compensation plans under which employees, consultants, suppliers and directors may be granted restricted stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock at the fair market value at the time of grant. Stock-based compensation cost to employees is measured by the Company at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period under ASC 718. For options issued to employees, the Company recognizes stock compensation costs utilizing the fair value methodology over the related period of benefit. Grants of stock to non-employees and other parties are accounted for in accordance with the ASC 505. |
Net (Loss) Per Share | Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. The common stock equivalents have not been included as they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2017, there are also (i) stock option grants outstanding for the purchase of 56,000,000 common shares at a $0.007 average exercise price; (ii) warrants for the purchase of 595 million common shares at a $0.031 average exercise price; and (iii) 241,766,075 million shares related to convertible debt that can be converted at $0.002535 per share. In addition, we have an unknown number of common shares to be issued under the Chicago Venture Partners, L.P. financing agreements. As of December 31, 2016, there are also (i) stock option grants outstanding for the purchase of 12,010,000 common shares at a $0.010 average strike price; (ii) warrants for the purchase of 595 million common shares at a $0.031 average exercise price; and (iii) 207,812,222 shares related to convertible debt that can be converted at $0.0036 per share. In addition, we have an unknown number of common shares to be issued under the TCA Global Credit Master Fund LP and Chicago Venture Partners, L.P. financing agreements. |
Dividend Policy | The Company has never paid any cash dividends and intends, for the foreseeable future, to retain any future earnings for the development of our business. Our future dividend policy will be determined by the board of directors on the basis of various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and investment opportunities. |
Use of Estimates | In preparing these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions included in our consolidated financial statements relate to the valuation of long-lived assets, estimates of sales returns, inventory reserves and accruals for potential liabilities, and valuation assumptions related to derivative liability, equity instruments and share based compensation. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent accounting pronouncements, other than those below, issued by the FASB, the AICPA and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material effect on the Company’s present or future financial statements. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2015-11, Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which affects reporting entities that measure inventory using either the first-in, first-out or average cost method. Specifically, the guidance requires that inventory be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable cost of completion, disposal, and transportation. This adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business, to assist with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for transactions not reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which reduces the diversity in practice on how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this pronouncement. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which requires a lessee, in most leases, to initially recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within with those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this pronouncement. In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Scope of Modification Accounting. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 (ASU 2016-09), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting |
