Organization [Abstract]
Organization	Note 1 - Organization
	Organization
	Ener-Core, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”), a Nevada corporation, was formed on April 29, 2010 as Inventtech, Inc.  On July 1, 2013, we acquired our wholly owned subsidiary, Ener-Core Power, Inc., (formerly Flex Power Generation, Inc.), a Delaware corporation.  The shareholders of Ener-Core Power, Inc. are now our majority shareholders and the management of Ener-Core Power, Inc. is now our management.  Therefore the acquisition is treated as a “reverse merger” and our financial statements are those of Ener-Core Power, Inc.  All equity amounts presented have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse merger as if it had occurred November 12, 2012.
	Reverse Merger
	We entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ener-Core Power, Inc. (“Ener-Core Power”), a Delaware corporation, and Flex Merger Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and our wholly owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub would merge with and into Ener-Core Power, with Ener-Core Power as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). Prior to the merger, we were a public reporting “shell company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The Merger Agreement was approved by the boards of directors of each of the parties to the Merger Agreement.  In April 2013, the pre-merger public shell company effected a 30-for-1 forward split of its common stock.  All share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the stock split.
	As provided in the Contribution Agreement dated November 12, 2012 (the “Contribution Agreement”) by and among FlexEnergy, Inc. (“FlexEnergy”, “Parent”), FlexEnergy Energy Systems, Inc. (“FEES”), and Ener-Core Power, Inc. (“Successor”), Ener-Core Power, Inc. was spun-off from FlexEnergy, Inc. as a separate corporation.  As a part of that transaction, Ener-Core Power, Inc. received all assets (including intellectual property) and certain liabilities pertaining to the Gradual Oxidizer business (Predecessor), the business carved out of Parent.  The owners of Predecessor did not distribute ownership of Successor entity pro rata.  The assets and liabilities were transferred to us and recorded at their historical carrying amounts since the transaction was a transfer of net assets between entities under common control.
	On July 1, 2013, Ener-Core Power completed the Merger with us.  Upon completion of the merger, the operating company immediately became a public company.  The Merger was accounted for as a “reverse merger” and recapitalization. As part of the reverse merger, the pre-merger public shell company shareholders cancelled 120,520,000 of common stock which were then outstanding.  This cancellation has been retroactively accounted for as of the inception of Ener-Core Power, Inc. on November 12, 2012. Accordingly, Ener-Core Power was deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of Ener-Core Power.  Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in the financial statements are those of Ener-Core Power and are recorded at the historical cost basis of Ener-Core Power.  Our assets, liabilities and results of operations were de minimis at the time of merger.
	Description of the Business
	We design, develop, and manufacture products based on proprietary technologies that aim to expand the operating range of gaseous fuel while improving emissions, which technologies we refer to collectively as “Gradual Oxidization” or “Gradual Oxidizer.”  Our products aim to expand power generation into previously uneconomical markets while, at the same time, reduce gaseous emissions from industrial processes that contribute to air pollution and climate change.  The Gradual Oxidizer integrates with a gas turbine and generator to create a power station.
	Our product, the FP250, is a complete system consisting of our designed and patented gradual oxidizer, integrated with a gas turbine and generator.  The FP250 has been designed to operate on fuels from 100% combustible gas down to concentrations of 5% or less combustible gas content.  The FP250 has applications in landfill, oil production, coal mining, and other operations, and offers our customers two distinct value propositions: the destruction of low quality waste gases with no harmful emissions and the generation of energy from a renewable fuel source.
	We are currently developing our second commercial product, the Ener-Core Powerstation KG2-3G/GO (“KG2”), which will combine our Gradual Oxidizer with a two megawatt gas turbine developed by Dresser-Rand a.s., a subsidiary of Dresser-Rand Group Inc. (“Dresser Rand”).  We have completed system layout and analytic models integrating our Gradual Oxidizer with the turbine and have initiated design and development of the KG2.  We expect to field test units in late 2014 or 2015, with initial commercial shipments shortly thereafter.
	We sell our products directly and through distributors in two countries, the United States and Netherlands.
	Going Concern
	Our consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Since our inception, we have made a substantial investment in research and development to develop the Power Oxidizer, have successfully deployed an EC250 field test unit at the U.S. Army base at Fort Benning, Georgia, and installed and commissioned our first commercial unit in the Netherlands in the second quarter of 2014.
	We have sustained recurring net losses and negative cash flows since inception and have not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs and allow us to continue as a going concern. Despite a capital raise of approximately $4.0 million in September 2014, we expect to require additional sources of capital to support the Company’s growth initiatives. We must secure additional funding to continue as a going concern and execute our business plan.
	Management’s plan is to obtain such resources by obtaining capital sufficient to meet our operating expenses by seeking additional equity and/or debt financing. The cash and cash equivalents balance (including restricted cash) on December 31, 2014 and March 16, 2015, was approximately $2.2 million and $0.8 million (including restricted cash of $50,000), respectively.
	We project that our unrestricted cash balance of $0.8 million as of March 16, 2014, will continue to fund our working capital needs, general corporate purposes, and related obligations for the short term at our current spending levels. However, we expect to require significantly more cash for working capital and as financial security to support our growth initiatives.
	We will pursue raising additional debt or equity financing to fund our operations and product development.  If future funds are raised through issuance of stock or debt, these securities could have rights, privileges, or preferences senior to those of common stock and debt covenants that could impose restrictions on the Company’s operations. The sale of additional equity securities or debt financing will likely result in additional dilution to the Company’s current shareholders.  We cannot make any assurances that any additional financing will be completed on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all.   Management’s inability to successfully complete any other financing will adversely impact our ability to continue as a going concern. If our business fails or we are unable to seek immediate financing, our investors may face a complete loss of their investment.
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments that might be necessary if we were unable to meet our obligations or continue operations as a going concern.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Ener-Core Power, Inc.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. All amounts are rounded to the nearest $000, except certain per share amounts within the footnotes.
	The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.
	Reclassifications
	Certain amounts in the 2013 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net loss.
	Segments
	We operate in one segment. All of our operations are located domestically.
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include but are not limited to: collectability of receivables; the valuation of certain assets, useful lives, and carrying amounts of property and equipment, equity instruments and share-based compensation; provision for contract losses; valuation allowances for deferred income tax assets; valuation of derivative liabilities; and exposure to warranty and other contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
	Foreign Currency Adjustments
	Our functional currency for all operations worldwide is the U.S. dollar. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates and monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year. Income statement accounts are translated at average rates for the year. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not hold any foreign currency asset or liability amounts. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are reported as other income in the period they occurred.
	Concentrations of Credit Risk
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	We maintain our non-interest bearing transactional cash accounts at financial institutions for which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides insurance coverage of up to $250,000. For interest bearing cash accounts, from time to time, balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk related to these deposits. At December 31, 2014, we had $1.9 million in excess of the FDIC limit.
	We consider all highly liquid investments available for current use with an initial maturity of three months or less and are not restricted to be cash equivalents. We invest our cash in short-term money market accounts.
	Restricted Cash
	Collateral Account
	Under a credit card processing agreement with a financial institution that was entered in 2013, we are required to maintain funds on deposit with the financial institution as collateral. The amount of the deposit is at the discretion of the financial institution was $50,000 on December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Accounts Receivable
	Our accounts receivable are typically from credit worthy customers or, for international customers are supported by guarantees or letters of credit. For those customers to whom we extend credit, we perform periodic evaluations of them and maintain allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. We generally do not require collateral to secure accounts receivable. We have a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
	At December 31, 2014, we reserved $34,000 related to rents receivable from our sublessees. At December 31, 2013, we did not have any allowance for doubtful accounts.  Although we expect to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the recorded amounts.
	As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, one and one customer, respectively, accounted for 100% of net accounts receivable for each year. One customer accounted for 100% of net revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.  Two customers accounted for 100% of net revenues for the twelve months ended September 30, 2013.
	Accounts Payable
	As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, six and two vendors, respectively, collectively accounted for approximately 54% and 48% of total accounts payable.
	Inventory
	Inventory, which consists of raw materials, is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the average-cost method, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. At each balance sheet date, we evaluate our ending inventory for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation primarily includes an analysis of forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, among consideration of other factors. Based upon the evaluation, provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the respective inventories. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not have a reserve for slow-moving or obsolete inventory.
	Costs in Excess of Billings on Uncompleted Contracts
	Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts in the consolidated balance sheets represents accumulation of costs for labor, materials, overhead and other costs that have been incurred. These costs will be recognized as costs of goods sold when the contract is considered complete in accordance with the completed-contract method. Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts were $0 and $801,000 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In June 2014, our contract with EECT was completed, resulting in the recognition of revenue related to the contract plus change orders and all associated costs.
	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are being depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to ten years. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
	Deposits
	Deposits primarily consist of amounts incurred or paid in advance of the receipt of fixed assets or are deposits for rent and insurance.
	Accrued Warranties
	Accrued warranties represent the estimated costs that will be incurred during the warranty period of our products. We make an estimate of expected costs that will be incurred by us during the warranty period and charge that expense to the consolidated statement of operations at the date of sale. We also reevaluate the estimate at each balance sheet date and if the estimate is changed, the effect is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations. We made our initial commercial sale to EECT with a six month warranty and later extended that warranty at our discretion. There was no warranty for the unit shipped to the Fort Benning site. We expect our future warranty period to be between six months and one year depending on the warranties provided and the products sold. Accrued warranties for expected expenditures within the next year are classified as current liabilities and as non-current liabilities for expected expenditures for time periods beyond one year.
	Deferred Rent
	We record deferred rent expense, which represents the temporary differences between the reporting of rental expense on the financial statements and the actual amounts remitted to the landlord. The deferred rent portion of lease agreements are leasing inducements provided by the landlord. Also, tenant improvement allowances provided are recorded as a deferred rent liability and recognized ratably as a reduction to rent expense over the lease term.
	Intangible Assets
	We amortize our intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives.
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	We account for our long-lived assets in accordance with the accounting standards which require that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. We consider the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable based upon its review of the following events or changes in circumstances: the asset’s ability to continue to generate income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods; loss of legal ownership or title to the assets; significant changes in our strategic business objectives and utilization of the asset; or significant negative industry or economic trends. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset are less than its carrying amount. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we do not believe there have been any impairments of our long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our products will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, derivative liabilities, Secured Notes payable and related debt discounts and capital lease liabilities. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. The carrying amounts of short-term financial instruments are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to their short-term nature or proximity to market rates for similar items.
	We determine the fair value of our financial instruments based on a three-level hierarchy established for fair value measurements under which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect management’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:
		●	Level 1: Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Currently, we classify our cash and cash equivalents as Level 1 financial instruments.
		●	Level 2: Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. We do not currently have any accounts under Level 2.
		●	Level 3: Valuations based on inputs that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable and involve management judgment (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). Currently, we classify our warrants accounted for as derivative liabilities as level 3 financial instruments.
	If the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
	Derivative Financial Instruments
	The Company issues derivative financial instruments in conjunction with its debt and equity offerings and to provide additional incentive to investors and placement agents. The Company’s uses derivative financial instruments in order to obtain the lowest cash cost-source of funds. Derivative liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value based on the criteria specified in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) topic 815-40 “ Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s own Equity.” The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities is calculated using either the Black-Scholes-Merton or Monte Carlo simulation model method.
	The Company issued common stock warrants and convertible secured notes payable with conversion features in April 2014. These embedded derivatives were evaluated under ASC topic 815-40, were bifurcated from the debt host and are classified as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company records the warrants and embedded derivative liabilities at fair value and adjusts the carrying value of the common stock warrants and embedded derivatives to their estimated fair value at each reporting date with the increases or decreases in the fair value of such warrants and derivatives at each reporting date, recorded as a gain or (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations (See Notes 8, 9, and 11).
	The Company issued common stock warrants for services in September 2014. These derivative securities were evaluated under ASC topic 815-40 and determined that they did not need to be recorded as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The warrants were valued on the date of issuance at fair value.
	Revenue Recognition
	We generate revenue from the sale of our clean power energy systems and from consulting services. Revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product delivery and acceptance have occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonable assured. Amounts billed to clients for shipping and handling are classified as sales of product with related costs incurred included in cost of sales.
	Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related revenue is recorded. We defer any revenue for which the services have not been performed or are subject to refund until such time that we and our customer jointly determine that the services have been performed or no refund will be required.
	Revenues under long-term construction contracts are generally recognized using the completed-contract method of accounting. Long-term construction-type contracts for which reasonably dependable estimates cannot be made or for which inherent hazards make estimates difficult are accounted for under the completed-contract method. Revenues under the completed-contract method are recognized upon substantial completion – that is acceptance by the customer, compliance with performance specifications demonstrated in a factory acceptance test or similar event. Accordingly, during the period of contract performance, billings and costs are accumulated on the balance sheet, but no profit or income is recorded before completion or substantial completion of the work. Anticipated losses on contracts are recognized in full in the period in which losses become probable and estimable. Changes in estimate of profit or loss on contracts are included in earnings on a cumulative basis in the period the estimate is changed. We had deferred all amounts received on our contract with EECT until the contract is substantially completed, which occurred in June 2014, at which time the entire contract, including change orders, was recorded as revenue. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we had a provision for contract loss of $0 and $100,000, respectively, related to our contract with EECT for the Attero EC250 sale in the Netherlands.
	Research and Development Costs
	Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Research and development was $3.2 million and $2.3 million, for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Share-Based Compensation
	We maintain a stock option plan and record expenses attributable to the stock option plan. We amortize share-based compensation from the date of grant on a weighted average basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award.
	We account for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services at fair value. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant’s or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.
	In accordance with the accounting standards, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, we record the fair value of the fully vested, non-forfeitable common stock issued for future consulting services as prepaid expense in our consolidated balance sheets.
	Income Taxes
	We account for income taxes under the provisions of the accounting standards.  Under the accounting standards, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax benefits or consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such asset will not be realized through future operations. Our deferred tax assets and liabilities are primarily related to our Net Operating Losses and timing differences between book and tax accounting for depreciation and our net deferred tax assets were fully reserved as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
The accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits.  We recognize any uncertain income tax positions on income tax returns at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority.  An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained.  As of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate.  Our practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.  We had no accrual for interest or penalties on our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2014 and 2013 and have not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.
We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state and foreign jurisdictions.
We do not foresee material changes to our gross uncertain income tax position liability within the next twelve months.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation.  Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  Options and warrants to purchase approximately 23.1 million and 9.5 million were outstanding at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share due to the anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share.
		Year ended			Year ended
		December 31,			December 31,
		2014			2013
Net loss		$	(10,534,000	)	$	(7,130,000	)
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding:
Basic and diluted			85,381,000			67,803,000
Net loss attributable to common stockholders per share:
Basic and diluted		$	(0.12	)	$	(0.11	)
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
We have no items of other comprehensive income (loss) in any period presented. Therefore, net loss as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Operations equals comprehensive loss.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting (“ASU 2013-07”). The amendments in ASU 2013-07 clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting and provide principles for the recognition and measurement of associated assets and liabilities. In accordance with the amendments, the liquidation basis is used when liquidation is imminent.  Liquidation is considered imminent when the likelihood is remote that the organization will return from liquidation and either: (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties; or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces. The adoption of ASU 2013-07 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted FASB ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (“ASU 2013-11”). The amendments in ASU 2013-11 clarify that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed.  In situations where a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In May, 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 provides a framework for addressing revenue recognition issues and, upon its effective date, replaces almost all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, in current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2014-09 is effective beginning with the calendar year ended December 31, 2017. The Company has not yet assessed the impact ASU 2014-09 will have upon adoption on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 requires that an entity's management evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Certain disclosures are necessary in the footnotes to the financial statements in the event that conditions or events raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter and early application is permitted. The Company has not yet assessed the impact ASU 2014-15 will have upon adoption.
In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16 – Derivatives and Hedging: Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share is More Akin to Debt or to Equity. ASU 2014-16 clarifies how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. ASU 2014-16 is effected for the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has not yet assessed the impact ASU 2014-16 will have upon adoption.

	Ending balance – December 31, 2014		$	-		$	-		$	-
	On April 16, 2014, the Company issued $4.6 million of convertible secured promissory notes (“Secured Notes”) in a private placement to five institutional investors. The Secured Notes and related detachable warrants are governed by a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) dated as of April 15, 2014.
	The Secured Notes carried interest at a rate of 0.28% per year, subject to certain adjustments, and were originally set to mature in October 2015. The Secured Notes were convertible, at the holders’ option, into shares of the Company's common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.67 per share, subject to adjustments in the event the Company issued equity securities at a price per share below the conversion price. Interest on the Secured Notes was payable quarterly and the principal amount of the Secured Notes amortized monthly with payments originally set to begin on July 16, 2014 and extended in July 2014 to begin August 15, 2014 (see below). On each of the monthly principal installment dates, the Company’s scheduled principal amortization payment was to have been $286,000. Installment payments could be settled, at the Company’s option, in cash or shares of common stock, subject to certain conditions including: (i) the daily dollar trading volume of the Company's common stock during the thirty (30) trading days prior to the applicable date of determination shall be at least $50,000 commencing August 9, 2014; and (ii) the daily weighted average price of the Company's common stock for each trading day during the thirty (30) trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to the applicable date of determination was initially set to be at least $0.50. Also subject to certain conditions, at any time, the holder may accelerate a limited amount of scheduled amortization payments.
	The Secured Notes were issued with detachable warrants to purchase up to 4.1 million shares of its common stock, exercisable for five years with an initial exercise price of $0.78 per share subject to potential future anti-dilution adjustments for the exercise price in the event the Company issues equity securities at a price per share lower than the warrant exercise price. On September 22, 2014, the warrants issued had the exercise price reduced to $0.50 per share with a further exercise price reduction to be 80% of the 10 day average volume weighted exercise price for the the ten trading days prior to March 24, 2015. On March 24, 2015 the warrant exercise price was reduced to $0.11 per share.
	The SPA provides for the investors to continue to have participation rights for two years from the date of the agreement. Each investor, on a pro-rata basis, shall have the right but not the obligation to participate in up to 50% of any future financing.
	The Company received gross proceeds of $4.0 million, and incurred cash transaction expenses of approximately $0.2 million. Of the $3.8 million net proceeds, $2.3 million was placed in a control account pursuant the Control Agreement and $1.5 million was available for the company to be used for overhead and general working capital purposes. The release of additional cash from the Control Agreement was at the discretion of the investors.
	In connection with the issuance of the Secured Notes, the Company agreed to pay the placement agent 6.5% of the total principal amount of the Secured Notes, of which $0.2 million were to be paid as the funds are released from the control account. The placement agent was granted warrants to purchase up to 0.7 million shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable at $0.78 per share (subject to future anti-dilution adjustments) and expire on April 15, 2019.
	The Secured Notes were initially recorded net of a discount of $3.2 million, reflecting the original issue discount of $0.6 million, the fair value of the warrants and embedded derivatives within the Secured Notes on the issuance date of $2.1 million and $0.5 million in costs related to the issuance of the Secured Notes. See below for further detail on the fair value of the warrants and derivatives. The $3.2 million debt discount was amortized through interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations over the term of the Secured Notes.
	Amendment to Secured Notes
	On July 11, 2014, the Company entered into a letter agreement with the investors who are parties to the SPA. The letter agreement amended certain terms of the SPA and the Secured Notes issued thereunder.
	The letter agreement amended the SPA as follows:
		●	The period of time during which the Company may sell and issue up to $2.0 million of its equity securities without the consent of the investors was increased from 45 days commencing April 16, 2014, to 120 days.
	The letter agreement amended the Secured Notes as follows:
		●	The date of the Company’s first monthly installment payment was changed from July 16, 2014, to August 15, 2014;
		●	The date of the Company’s final monthly installment, as well as the maturity date of the Secured Notes, was changed from October 16, 2015, to November 16, 2015;
		●	The required closing price of the Company’s common stock in order to satisfy certain equity conditions was changed from $0.50 to $0.35; and
		●	The percentage used to determine the Market Price (as defined in the Secured Notes) of the Company’s common stock, was changed from 85% to 82%.
	Except for the foregoing amendments, the remaining terms of the SPA and the Secured Notes remained unchanged. The investors who were signatories to the letter agreement collectively constitute the Required Holders (as defined in the SPA and the Secured Notes) necessary to effectuate the foregoing amendments.
	Conversion and Redemption of Secured Notes Payable
	On August 14, 2014, we entered into a Conversion and Redemption Agreement (each, an "Agreement" and together the "Agreements") with each holder of the Secured Notes. Pursuant to the Agreements:
		●	The conversion price of the Secured Notes was adjusted to $0.20 per share. As a result of this change, we adjusted the fair value of the conversion feature to $103,000 immediately prior to the conversion;
		●	The holders of the Secured Notes converted a portion of the Secured Notes held by them, in an aggregate amount of $2,711,000, into 13,555,000 shares of our common stock in the aggregate based on the adjusted conversion price;
		●	The holders of the Secured Notes redeemed a portion of the Secured Notes held by them for cash, in the aggregate amount of $1,833,000, from the funds held in the control account;
		●	The Secured Notes were cancelled immediately following the foregoing conversion and redemption. The fair value of the conversion feature was accelerated to income and we recorded a loss on conversion of $2,414,000; and
		●	$405,000, net of $17,000 of legal fees, of the funds held in the control account was transferred to us immediately after the closing of the Agreements.
	The closing of the Agreements occurred on August 15, 2014, and we received funds from the control account on August 18, 2014. The following reflect changes to our financial statements resulted upon the conversion and redemption of the secured notes payable:
			Increase (decrease)
	Operating Cash		$	405,000
	Restricted Cash		$	(2,288,000	)
	Convertible Note		$	(4,575,000	)
	Discount on convertible note		$	(2,515,000	)
	Derivative liabilities		$	(104,000	)
	Common stock		$	1,000
	Paid in capital		$	2,710,000
	Outstanding shares			13,555,000
	Derivative Liabilities
	We evaluate any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock to determine if they are indexed to an entity’s own stock.
	The common stock purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants and embedded conversion features using the Binomial pricing model using the following assumptions:
				2014
	Annual dividend yield			-
	Expected life (years)			1.25-5.0
	Risk-free interest rate			0.04%-0.96	%
	Expected volatility			47%-151	%
	Expected volatility is based primarily on historical volatility of us and our peer group. Historical volatility was computed using weekly pricing observations for us and daily pricing observations for our peer group for recent periods that correspond to the expected term. We believe this method produces an estimate that is representative of our expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants.
	We currently have no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining term of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on one-year to five-year U.S. Treasury securities consistent with the remaining term of the warrants.
	The fair values of the April 2014 warrants and embedded derivatives, which require bifurcation from the debt host, were initially recorded within long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The embedded derivatives relate to the conversion option, redemption in the case of an event of default and redemption in the case of a change in control features of the convertible secured note. On August 14, 2014, the convertible secured note related derivatives were marked to market with the change recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value of these liabilities and a gain on derivatives liabilities recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and the remaining carrying value was eliminated when the underlying debt was redeemed and converted as described above. The April 2014 warrants will continue to be marked to market quarterly, with any change recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value of these liabilities and the gain or (loss) on warrant derivative liabilities recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the warrants and embedded derivatives from the issuance date to the December 31, 2014 declined $1.7 million. The following table provides a reconciliation of the derivative liability activity:
			Warrants			Embedded Note			Total
			Liability			Conversion
						Feature
	Original Value - April 16, 2014		$	1,250,000		$	828,000		$	2,078,000
	Adjustment to fair value, Conversion Feature, August 14, 2014			-			(724,000	)		(724,000	)
	Conversion of convertible secured notes			-			(104,000	)		(104,000	)
	Adjustment to fair value, Warrants			(848,000	)		-			(848,000	)
	Ending balance – December 31, 2014		$	402,000		$	-		$	402,000

	Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk, including the Company's own credit risk.
	Inputs used in measuring fair value are prioritized into a three-level hierarchy based on whether the inputs to those measurements are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's market assumptions. The fair-value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available and consists of the following levels:
		●	Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
		●	Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and
		●	Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.
	The following tables present information on the Company’s financial instruments as of December 31, 2014:
			Fair Value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	Cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash		$	2,226,000	$	2,226,000	$	-	$	-

Equity [Abstract]
Equity	Note 11 - Equity
	Common Stock Issuances
	In April 2013, we sold and issued 1,867,000 shares of our common stock to our major stockholder at $0.75 per share in consideration of approximately $728,000 in cash proceeds and for the conversion of approximately $671,000 of our debt and working capital obligations that we had incurred between the spin-off transaction in November 2012 and March 2013.  Certain cash proceeds were received, and all repayments occurred, in April 2013, and additional cash proceeds were received in June 2013.
	In July 2013, we sold and issued 4,614,000 shares of our common stock at $0.75 per share in connection with the Merger-related private placement for which we received proceeds of approximately $3,077,000 million, net of approximately $383,000 in broker-dealer commissions.  As discussed in Note 13, we also issued 133,000 shares as conversion of a $100,000 related party note payable. In connection with this financing, we issued warrants for the purchase of up to 475,000 shares of our common stock to placement agents in July 2013.  The warrants have an exercise price of $0.75 per share and expire five years from issuance.
	In August 2013, we sold and issued 413,000 shares of our common stock at $0.75 per share, for which we received proceeds of approximately $285,000, net of approximately $25,000 in broker-dealer commissions. In connection with this financing, we issued warrants for the purchase of up to 36,000 shares of our common stock to placement agents. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.75 per share and expire five years from issuance.
	In November 2013, we sold and issued 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at $1.00 per share, for which we received proceeds of approximately $1,375,000 net of offering costs of approximately $125,000.  In connection with this financing, we issued warrants for the purchase of up to 120,000 shares of our common stock to placement agents. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.00 per share and expire five years from issuance. In 2014, the investors in this offering threatened legal action surrounding claims of misrepresentations made by the Company. The dispute was settled in December 2014 as described below.
	On August 15, 2014, we issued 13,555,000 shares of our common stock to the holders of the Secured Notes for the conversion of $2,711,000 of Secured Notes held by them based on the adjusted conversion price described in Note 9 above.
	On September 22, 2014, we sold and issued 26,666,658 shares of our common stock to 36 accredited investors at $0.15 per share (the “September 2014 PIPE”). We received net cash proceeds of $3,844,000 consisting of $4,000,000 in gross proceeds reduced by $156,000 in cash offering costs consisting of cash placement fees of $73,000 and legal fees of $32,000. In addition to the cash offering costs, we also issued: (1) 1,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $150,000; and (2) warrants to purchase up to 1,325,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The warrants issued for placement agent fees are exercisable for a period of four years after their issuance dates. The warrants issued to the placement agents were recorded to offering costs at fair value of $296,000 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using a market price of $0.27 per share on the date of issuance, a risk free rate of 1.8%, a dividend rate of 0%, and volatility of 151%.
	In connection with the September 2014 PIPE transaction, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company was required to file a registration statement related to the September 2014 PIPE transaction with the SEC covering the resale of the Shares that were issued to the Investors. The Company filed the initial registration statement on October 22, 2014 and the registration statement was declared effective on November 13, 2014.
	In December 2014 the Company settled a legal claim made by the two investors who invested $1,500,000 in November 2013 as described above. The investors claimed that the Company was required to raise a total of $5,000,000 as a condition of their investment participation, did not properly register all shares issued, and did not satisfy the financing condition despite the issuance of the convertible debt offering dated April 15, 2014. The Company disputed this claim but to avoid costly legal expenses, in December 2014 the Company issued 423,077 shares of its common stock and a total of 1,923,077 warrants to settle the claim in full.
	The Company’s Convertible Note holders provided a waiver of any price reset rights in July 2014 before the conversion of the notes in August 2014. This waiver also applied to the price reset rights of the convertible note warrants remaining as of December 31, 2014. See further discussion of the warrants issued in Note 12 below.

Stock Options and Warrants [Abstract]
Stock Options and Warrants	Note 12 - Stock Options and Warrants
	On July 1, 2013, our Board of Directors adopted and approved the 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan.  The plan authorizes us to grant non-qualified stock options and restricted stock purchase rights to purchase up to 14,000,000 shares of our common stock with vesting to employees (including officers) and other service providers. To date, all issuances under the 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan have been stock options. No restricted shares have been issued under the 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan.  At December 31, 2014, 0.8 million shares were available for future grants and total unrecognized deferred stock compensation expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of 3.89 years for outstanding grants was $4.0 million.
	On March 25, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the authorized shares available for grants under the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan from 14,000,000 shares of common stock to 21,000,000 shares of common stock.
	In April 2014, all outstanding employee stock options granted under the 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan were cancelled and reissued by our Board of Directors with an exercise price of $0.35 per share. Each reissued stock option grant had 15% of the stock option vesting immediately and the remainder in 1/36th in monthly increments over the next three years. As a result of the cancellation and reissuance of the options, we recognized a non-cash charge of $840,000 for the incremental change in fair value of the cancelled and reissued options over the vesting period of the reissued options. This cancellation and reissuance affected 21 employees who held 8.6 million stock options as of the date of the cancellation and reissuance.
	The fair value of option awards and warrants issued is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model for all warrants except for the warrants issued in April 2014 in conjunction with the April 2014 Convertible Debt offering which are estimated on the grant date and on subsequent measuring dates using the binomial method as described in Note 8.
	Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by employees who receive equity awards, and subsequent events are not indicative of the reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value made by us.  The following table presents the range of grant date assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options and warrants granted for the year ended December 31, 2014.
			December 31,
			2014
	Expected volatility			71- 185	%
	Dividend yield			0	%
	Risk-free interest rate			1.55-1.70	%
	Expected life (in years)			4.5- 8.2
	Expected volatility represents the estimated volatility of the shares over the expected life of the options.  We have estimated the expected volatility based on the weighted-average historical volatilities of a pool of public companies that are comparable to Ener-Core.
	We use an expected dividend yield of zero since no dividends are expected to be paid.  The risk-free interest rate for periods within the expected life of the option is derived from the U.S. treasury interest rates in effect at the date of grant.  The expected option life represents the period of time the option is expected to be outstanding.  The simplified method is used to estimate the term since we do not have sufficient exercise history to calculate the expected life of the options.
	Stock-based compensation expense is recorded only for those awards expected to vest.  Currently, the forfeiture rate is zero.  The rate is adjusted if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates in order to recognize compensation cost only for those awards that actually vest.  If factors change and different assumptions are employed in future periods, the share-based compensation expense may differ from that recognized in previous periods.
	Stock-based award activity was as follows:
								Weighted-
						Weighted-		Average
						Average		Remaining		Aggregate
						Exercise		Contractual		Intrinsic
	Options		Shares			Price		Life		Value
	Balance, December 31, 2013			8,910,000		$	1.289		6.3
	Forfeited during 2014			(1,532,400	)		0.48
	Cancelled during 2014			(8,610,000	)		1.29
	Reissued during 2014			8,610,000			0.35
	Granted during 2014			5,985,266			0.25
	Balance, December 31, 2014			13,362,866		$	0.3		6.51	$	47,000
	Exercisable on December 31, 2014			3,644,471		$	0.37		5.53	$	2,000
	The options granted have a contract term ranging between five and seven years.  Options granted during 2014 had vesting schedules between zero and four years. Options cancelled and reissued had portions vested immediately and the remainder over a three year period, with 15% - 100% of the options vesting immediately upon grant and the remainder ratably over the vesting term.
	The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2014:

	General and administrative			2,025,000			992,000
	Total		$	3,460,000		$	1,729,000
	Restricted Stock
	Restricted stock grants consist of common shares of the Company owned by employees, consultants, and directors which are subject to vesting conditions, typically for services provided to the company. Restricted Stock was originally issued in the first quarter of 2013 when all outstanding stock options in existence at that time were exercised prior to vesting. All unvested restricted shares are subject to repurchase rights and therefore recorded as restricted stock.
	Restricted stock activities in 2014 were as follows:
						Weighted-
						Average
						Grant
			Shares			Price
	Balance, December 31, 2013			1,677,000		$	0.001
	Repurchase of unvested restricted shares			(92,000	)	$
	Vested, year ended December 31, 2014			(799,000	)	$
	Unvested balance, December 31, 2014			786,000		$	0.001
	The remaining unvested restricted shares vest over the next twelve months.
	Under the terms of the stock option plan, we repurchased 92,000 shares from an employee for $92 during the year ended December 31, 2014.
	Warrants
	From time to time, we issue warrants to purchase shares of our common stock to investors, note holders and to non-employees for services rendered or to be rendered in the future. Each warrant gives the holder the right to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a fixed exercise price or “strike” price. For certain warrant series, the fixed exercise price may be adjusted lower upon certain conditions.
	The following table provides a reconciliation of the warrant activity for the year ended December 31, 2014:

Warrants exercisable at December 31, 2014						9,784,016	$	0.54
	-1	The 2014 Services Warrants – April were issued for fees incurred in conjunction with the 2014 Convertible Notes. The warrants were valued on the issuance date at $0.23 per warrant in conjunction with the valuation approach used for the 2014 Convertible Notes Warrants initial valuation.
	-2	The 2014 Convertible Notes Warrants (“Convertible Notes Warrants”) were issued in conjunction with the April 2014 Convertible Notes described in Note 8 above. The Convertible Notes Warrants were originally issued with an exercise price of $0.78 per share and have anti-dilution price protection whereby if the Company issues any common stock, or securities convertible or exercisable into common stock at a price per share less than the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants, the Company is obligated to reduce the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants to an exercise price at, or below the new issuance price. On September 22, 2014, the Company issued approximately 26.7 million common shares at a price per share of $0.15 as described in Note 11 above. In conjunction with this issuance, the Company received a waiver from the warrant holders which waived the reset of their exercise price which would have been to $0.15 per share. The terms of the waiver required the Company to reduce the warrant exercise price to $0.50 per share, from $0.78 per share and also required the Company to make a further adjustment to the exercise price on March 22, 2015. On that date, the Company is obligated to reset the warrant exercise price to the lower of the current exercise price of $0.50 per warrant, or to an exercise price equivalent to 70% of the weighted average price of the Company’s common stock for the preceding 10 trading days prior to March 24, 2015. The Company currently accounts for the Convertible Notes Warrants as derivative liabilities. On March 24, 2015 the Company adjusted the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants to $0.11 per share. Issuances of future securities below $0.11 per share would require an additional reduction in the Convertible Notes Warrants exercise price.
	-3	The 2014 Services Warrants – September were issued to a consultant in exchange for advisory services with no readily available fair value. The warrants were originally issued at $0.78 per warrant and had a one-time price reset provision to the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants if the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants changed prior the September 30, 2014. On September 22, 2014, the exercise price was changed to $0.50 per warrant. There are no further exercise price changes for this warrant series. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $131,000 on the issuance date with an additional $6,000 recorded to expense on September 22, 2014 to reflect the change in fair value resulting from the exercise price change.
	-4	On September 22, 2014 the Company issued 1,325,000 warrants with a strike price of $0.50 per warrant in conjunction with placement agent services for the Company’s September 2014 private equity placement. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $296,000 on the issuance date.
	-5	On November 26, 2014, the Company issued 325,000 warrants with a strike price of $0.50 per warrant for compensation for investor relations services provided. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $43,000 on the issuance date.
	-6	On December 1, 2014, the Company issued 961,539 warrants with a strike price of $0.78 per warrant and on December 15, 2014 issued 961,538 warrants with a strike price of $0.50 per warrant to settle legal disputes resulting from claims made by the investors in the November 2013 private equity placement. The warrants issued on December 1, 2014 were issued concurrent with 423,077 shares of the Company’s common stock in partial settlement of the claim from two investors. The Company settled all remaining claims with all remaining investors in the November 2013 private placement on December 15, 2014 by issuing the second tranche of warrants and setting the price of each warrant series issued at $0.50 with no further reset provisions. The combined issuance of the warrants and expense resulting from any price changes were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $246,000 and expensed to general and administrative expense.

Income Taxes	Note 13 - Income Taxes
	Income tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013 consists of the following:
		Year Ended December 31, 2014			Year Ended December 31, 2013
	Current income tax expense:

	Total	$	—		$	—
	Provision for income taxes	$	1,000		$	1,000
	Due to net losses, effective tax rate for the periods presented was 0%.
	Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of the assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.  The valuation allowance increased by $ 4.2 million from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2014.
		December 31,			December 31,

	Deferred tax assets:
	Net operating loss carry-forward	$	8,276,000			4,033,000
	Valuation allowance		(8,276,000	)		(4,033,000	)
	Net deferred tax assets	$	—		$	—
	A significant component of our deferred tax assets consisted of net operating loss carry-forwards.  We have evaluated the available evidence supporting the realization of our deferred tax assets, including the amount and timing of future taxable income, and have determined it is more likely than not that the assets will not be fully realized and a full valuation allowance is necessary as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.  As of December 31, 2014, we have federal and state net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $16.1 million and $16.2 million, respectively, which expire through 2032.  The utilization of net operating loss carry-forwards may be subject to limitations under provision of the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions.
	We follow ASC 740 related to accounting for uncertain tax positions, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements, uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  Under this provision, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. Tax benefits of an uncertain tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained based on technical merits.  We did not have any uncertain income tax position as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

	There were no related party transactions for the year ended December 31, 2014.
	Notes Payable and Advances
	In January 2013, we borrowed $250,000 from a stockholder under a secured convertible note payable that was due at the earliest of February 28, 2013, or upon completion of a $1,000,000 financing event.  The note accrued interest at the rate of 12% and was convertible at the lender’s option into common stock at 85% of the price of a future financing or $3.6056 per share.  The note and accrued interest were repaid using proceeds from a $260,000 convertible note payable in March 2013.  The note was secured by our intangible assets.
	In March 2013, we borrowed $260,000 from a stockholder under a note payable that was due March 28, 2014, or earlier, upon completion of the Merger.  The note accrued interest at the rate of 12% and was convertible at the lender’s option into common stock at $0.75 per share.  The note was subsequently converted in April 2013.  As the note was outstanding less than one month, no interest was due to the lender.
	In March 2013, a stockholder advanced us a total of $411,000 for operating capital.  The advance did not bear interest and was due on demand.  In April 2013, the advance was converted into our common stock at $0.75 per share at the stockholder’s election (see Note 11).
	In June 2013, we borrowed $100,000 from each of three individual stockholders under notes payable that were due December 31, 2013, or earlier, upon completion of the Merger.  The notes accrued interest at the rate of 8% and were convertible at the holders’ option into our common stock at $0.75 per share. On July 1, 2013, $100,000 was converted into shares of common stock in the Merger-related private placement, and $200,025, including $25 of accrued interest, was repaid at the closing of the Merger.
	Related party interest expense was $10,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013. There was no related party interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Note 15 - Commitments and Contingencies
	We may become a party to litigation in the normal course of business.  We accrue for open claims based on our historical experience and available insurance coverage.  In the opinion of management, there are no legal matters involving us that would have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	EECT Agreement
	On December 31, 2012, we entered into a Master Purchase and Resale Agreement (“MPRSA”) with EECT. As part of this agreement, EECT is committed to buy a certain number of the FP250 and related optional equipment in order to maintain exclusivity in the region.  The pricing for the first unit was $760,000, and subsequent units will be sold at a higher price than the first unit.  In accordance with the MPRSA, EECT placed a Purchase Order (“PO”) with us on December 31, 2012, for the purchase of the first unit at $760,000.  The order was conditional on the issuance of an irrevocable letter of credit to us, according to the terms of the PO.  Such irrevocable letter of credit was issued on March 1, 2013, in the amount of 533,000 Euros, and we acknowledged the acceptance of the PO on the same date.  On November 14, 2013, we shipped the FP250 and on December 24, 2013, we received the proceeds from the letter of credit.  We had deferred all amounts received on our contract with EECT until the contract was substantially completed, which occurred in June 2014, at which time the entire contract, including change orders, was recorded as revenue.   As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had a provision for contract loss of approximately $0 and $100,000, respectively, related to our contract with EECT.
	Warranties
	Our warranty policy generally provides coverage for components of the Gradual Oxidizer that we produce. Typically, the coverage period is one calendar year from the date of commissioning.  Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time products are commissioned. These estimates are established using available information on the nature, frequency, and average cost of claims. Revision to the reserves for estimated product warranties is made when necessary, based on changes in these factors. Management actively studies trends of claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize claims.
	The following table presents the changes in the product warranty accrual included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2014:
		2014
	Beginning balance, January 1, 2014	$	-
	Charged to cost of revenues		311,000
	Usage		(69,000	)
	Ending balance, December 31, 2014	$	242,000
	Product Liability
	With respect to product liability claims involving our products, we believe that any judgment against us for actual damages will be adequately covered by our recorded accruals and, where applicable, excess liability insurance coverage.
	Lease
	We lease our office facility, research and development facility and certain equipment under operating leases, which for the most part, are renewable.   Certain leases also provide that we pay insurance and taxes.
	Future minimum rental payments under operating leases that have initial noncancellable lease terms in excess of one year as of December 31, 2014 are as follows:
	2015	$	327,000
	2016		329,000
	2017		3,000
	2018		2,000
		$	661,000
	Minimum rent payments under operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of each lease.  Rent expense, net of sublease income, was $365,000 and $211,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Our current headquarters is located at 9400 Toledo Way, Irvine, California 92618.  The property consists of a mixed use commercial office, production, and warehouse facility of 32,649 square feet.  Effective August 1, 2013, we assumed this lease (the “Lease”) from FEES.  The Lease has a remaining term of 24 months and expires December 31, 2016.  The current monthly rent payment is $26,044 and increases on an annual basis.
	We also lease space from the Regents of the University of California, Irvine, for the installation and demonstration of the FP250 equipment. The lease has a monthly payment of $7,780 and expires on January 1, 2015 and is month-to-month thereafter.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Ener-Core Power, Inc.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. All amounts are rounded to the nearest $000, except certain per share amounts within the footnotes.
	The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications
	Certain amounts in the 2013 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net loss.
Segments	Segments
	We operate in one segment. All of our operations are located domestically.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include but are not limited to: collectability of receivables; the valuation of certain assets, useful lives, and carrying amounts of property and equipment, equity instruments and share-based compensation; provision for contract losses; valuation allowances for deferred income tax assets; valuation of derivative liabilities; and exposure to warranty and other contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Foreign Currency Adjustments	Foreign Currency Adjustments
	Our functional currency for all operations worldwide is the U.S. dollar. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates and monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year. Income statement accounts are translated at average rates for the year. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not hold any foreign currency asset or liability amounts. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are reported as other income in the period they occurred.
Concentrations of Credit Risk	Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	We maintain our non-interest bearing transactional cash accounts at financial institutions for which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides insurance coverage of up to $250,000. For interest bearing cash accounts, from time to time, balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk related to these deposits. At December 31, 2014, we had $1.9 million in excess of the FDIC limit.
	We consider all highly liquid investments available for current use with an initial maturity of three months or less and are not restricted to be cash equivalents. We invest our cash in short-term money market accounts.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash
	Collateral Account
	Under a credit card processing agreement with a financial institution that was entered in 2013, we are required to maintain funds on deposit with the financial institution as collateral. The amount of the deposit is at the discretion of the financial institution was $50,000 on December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable
	Our accounts receivable are typically from credit worthy customers or, for international customers are supported by guarantees or letters of credit. For those customers to whom we extend credit, we perform periodic evaluations of them and maintain allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. We generally do not require collateral to secure accounts receivable. We have a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
	At December 31, 2014, we reserved $34,000 related to rents receivable from our sublessees. At December 31, 2013, we did not have any allowance for doubtful accounts.  Although we expect to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the recorded amounts.
	As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, one and one customer, respectively, accounted for 100% of net accounts receivable for each year. One customer accounted for 100% of net revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.  Two customers accounted for 100% of net revenues for the twelve months ended September 30, 2013.
Accounts Payable	Accounts Payable
	As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, six and two vendors, respectively, collectively accounted for approximately 54% and 48% of total accounts payable.
Inventory	Inventory
	Inventory, which consists of raw materials, is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the average-cost method, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. At each balance sheet date, we evaluate our ending inventory for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation primarily includes an analysis of forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, among consideration of other factors. Based upon the evaluation, provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the respective inventories. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not have a reserve for slow-moving or obsolete inventory.
Costs in Excess of Billings on Uncompleted Contracts	Costs in Excess of Billings on Uncompleted Contracts
	Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts in the consolidated balance sheets represents accumulation of costs for labor, materials, overhead and other costs that have been incurred. These costs will be recognized as costs of goods sold when the contract is considered complete in accordance with the completed-contract method. Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts were $0 and $801,000 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In June 2014, our contract with EECT was completed, resulting in the recognition of revenue related to the contract plus change orders and all associated costs.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are being depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to ten years. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
Deposits	Deposits
	Deposits primarily consist of amounts incurred or paid in advance of the receipt of fixed assets or are deposits for rent and insurance.
Accrued Warranties	Accrued Warranties
	Accrued warranties represent the estimated costs that will be incurred during the warranty period of our products. We make an estimate of expected costs that will be incurred by us during the warranty period and charge that expense to the consolidated statement of operations at the date of sale. We also reevaluate the estimate at each balance sheet date and if the estimate is changed, the effect is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations. We made our initial commercial sale to EECT with a six month warranty and later extended that warranty at our discretion. There was no warranty for the unit shipped to the Fort Benning site. We expect our future warranty period to be between six months and one year depending on the warranties provided and the products sold. Accrued warranties for expected expenditures within the next year are classified as current liabilities and as non-current liabilities for expected expenditures for time periods beyond one year.
Deferred Rent	Deferred Rent
	We record deferred rent expense, which represents the temporary differences between the reporting of rental expense on the financial statements and the actual amounts remitted to the landlord. The deferred rent portion of lease agreements are leasing inducements provided by the landlord. Also, tenant improvement allowances provided are recorded as a deferred rent liability and recognized ratably as a reduction to rent expense over the lease term.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets
	We amortize our intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	We account for our long-lived assets in accordance with the accounting standards which require that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. We consider the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable based upon its review of the following events or changes in circumstances: the asset’s ability to continue to generate income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods; loss of legal ownership or title to the assets; significant changes in our strategic business objectives and utilization of the asset; or significant negative industry or economic trends. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset are less than its carrying amount. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we do not believe there have been any impairments of our long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our products will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, derivative liabilities, Secured Notes payable and related debt discounts and capital lease liabilities. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. The carrying amounts of short-term financial instruments are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to their short-term nature or proximity to market rates for similar items.
	We determine the fair value of our financial instruments based on a three-level hierarchy established for fair value measurements under which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect management’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:
		●	Level 1: Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Currently, we classify our cash and cash equivalents as Level 1 financial instruments.
		●	Level 2: Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. We do not currently have any accounts under Level 2.
		●	Level 3: Valuations based on inputs that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable and involve management judgment (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). Currently, we classify our warrants accounted for as derivative liabilities as level 3 financial instruments.
	If the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Derivative Financial Instruments	Derivative Financial Instruments
	The Company issues derivative financial instruments in conjunction with its debt and equity offerings and to provide additional incentive to investors and placement agents. The Company’s uses derivative financial instruments in order to obtain the lowest cash cost-source of funds. Derivative liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value based on the criteria specified in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) topic 815-40 “ Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s own Equity.” The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities is calculated using either the Black-Scholes-Merton or Monte Carlo simulation model method.
	The Company issued common stock warrants and convertible secured notes payable with conversion features in April 2014. These embedded derivatives were evaluated under ASC topic 815-40, were bifurcated from the debt host and are classified as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company records the warrants and embedded derivative liabilities at fair value and adjusts the carrying value of the common stock warrants and embedded derivatives to their estimated fair value at each reporting date with the increases or decreases in the fair value of such warrants and derivatives at each reporting date, recorded as a gain or (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations (See Notes 8, 9, and 11).
	The Company issued common stock warrants for services in September 2014. These derivative securities were evaluated under ASC topic 815-40 and determined that they did not need to be recorded as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The warrants were valued on the date of issuance at fair value.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition
	We generate revenue from the sale of our clean power energy systems and from consulting services. Revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product delivery and acceptance have occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonable assured. Amounts billed to clients for shipping and handling are classified as sales of product with related costs incurred included in cost of sales.
	Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related revenue is recorded. We defer any revenue for which the services have not been performed or are subject to refund until such time that we and our customer jointly determine that the services have been performed or no refund will be required.
	Revenues under long-term construction contracts are generally recognized using the completed-contract method of accounting. Long-term construction-type contracts for which reasonably dependable estimates cannot be made or for which inherent hazards make estimates difficult are accounted for under the completed-contract method. Revenues under the completed-contract method are recognized upon substantial completion – that is acceptance by the customer, compliance with performance specifications demonstrated in a factory acceptance test or similar event. Accordingly, during the period of contract performance, billings and costs are accumulated on the balance sheet, but no profit or income is recorded before completion or substantial completion of the work. Anticipated losses on contracts are recognized in full in the period in which losses become probable and estimable. Changes in estimate of profit or loss on contracts are included in earnings on a cumulative basis in the period the estimate is changed. We had deferred all amounts received on our contract with EECT until the contract is substantially completed, which occurred in June 2014, at which time the entire contract, including change orders, was recorded as revenue. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we had a provision for contract loss of $0 and $100,000, respectively, related to our contract with EECT for the Attero EC250 sale in the Netherlands.
Research and Development Costs	Research and Development Costs
	Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Research and development was $3.2 million and $2.3 million, for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Share-Based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation
	We maintain a stock option plan and record expenses attributable to the stock option plan. We amortize share-based compensation from the date of grant on a weighted average basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award.
	We account for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services at fair value. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant’s or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.
	In accordance with the accounting standards, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, we record the fair value of the fully vested, non-forfeitable common stock issued for future consulting services as prepaid expense in our consolidated balance sheets.
Income taxes	Income Taxes
	We account for income taxes under the provisions of the accounting standards.  Under the accounting standards, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax benefits or consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such asset will not be realized through future operations. Our deferred tax assets and liabilities are primarily related to our Net Operating Losses and timing differences between book and tax accounting for depreciation and our net deferred tax assets were fully reserved as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
	The accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits.  We recognize any uncertain income tax positions on income tax returns at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority.  An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained.  As of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate.  Our practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.  We had no accrual for interest or penalties on our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2014 and 2013 and have not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.
	We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state and foreign jurisdictions.
	We do not foresee material changes to our gross uncertain income tax position liability within the next twelve months.
Earnings (Loss) per Share	Earnings (Loss) per Share
	Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation.  Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  Options and warrants to purchase approximately 23.1 million and 9.5 million were outstanding at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share due to the anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)	Comprehensive Income (Loss)
	We have no items of other comprehensive income (loss) in any period presented. Therefore, net loss as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Operations equals comprehensive loss.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
	Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting (“ASU 2013-07”). The amendments in ASU 2013-07 clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting and provide principles for the recognition and measurement of associated assets and liabilities. In accordance with the amendments, the liquidation basis is used when liquidation is imminent.  Liquidation is considered imminent when the likelihood is remote that the organization will return from liquidation and either: (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties; or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces. The adoption of ASU 2013-07 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted FASB ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (“ASU 2013-11”). The amendments in ASU 2013-11 clarify that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed.  In situations where a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	In May, 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 provides a framework for addressing revenue recognition issues and, upon its effective date, replaces almost all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, in current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2014-09 is effective beginning with the calendar year ended December 31, 2017. The Company has not yet assessed the impact ASU 2014-09 will have upon adoption on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 requires that an entity's management evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Certain disclosures are necessary in the footnotes to the financial statements in the event that conditions or events raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter and early application is permitted. The Company has not yet assessed the impact ASU 2014-15 will have upon adoption.
	In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16 – Derivatives and Hedging: Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share is More Akin to Debt or to Equity. ASU 2014-16 clarifies how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. ASU 2014-16 is effected for the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has not yet assessed the impact ASU 2014-16 will have upon adoption.

		-1	The 2014 Services Warrants – April were issued for fees incurred in conjunction with the 2014 Convertible Notes. The warrants were valued on the issuance date at $0.23 per warrant in conjunction with the valuation approach used for the 2014 Convertible Notes Warrants initial valuation.
		-2	The 2014 Convertible Notes Warrants (“Convertible Notes Warrants”) were issued in conjunction with the April 2014 Convertible Notes described in Note 8 above. The Convertible Notes Warrants were originally issued with an exercise price of $0.78 per share and have anti-dilution price protection whereby if the Company issues any common stock, or securities convertible or exercisable into common stock at a price per share less than the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants, the Company is obligated to reduce the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants to an exercise price at, or below the new issuance price. On September 22, 2014, the Company issued approximately 26.7 million common shares at a price per share of $0.15 as described in Note 11 above. In conjunction with this issuance, the Company received a waiver from the warrant holders which waived the reset of their exercise price which would have been to $0.15 per share. The terms of the waiver required the Company to reduce the warrant exercise price to $0.50 per share, from $0.78 per share and also required the Company to make a further adjustment to the exercise price on March 22, 2015. On that date, the Company is obligated to reset the warrant exercise price to the lower of the current exercise price of $0.50 per warrant, or to an exercise price equivalent to 70% of the weighted average price of the Company’s common stock for the preceding 10 trading days prior to March 24, 2015. The Company currently accounts for the Convertible Notes Warrants as derivative liabilities. On March 24, 2015 the Company adjusted the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants to $0.11 per share. Issuances of future securities below $0.11 per share would require an additional reduction in the Convertible Notes Warrants exercise price.
		-3	The 2014 Services Warrants – September were issued to a consultant in exchange for advisory services with no readily available fair value. The warrants were originally issued at $0.78 per warrant and had a one-time price reset provision to the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants if the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants changed prior the September 30, 2014. On September 22, 2014, the exercise price was changed to $0.50 per warrant. There are no further exercise price changes for this warrant series. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $131,000 on the issuance date with an additional $6,000 recorded to expense on September 22, 2014 to reflect the change in fair value resulting from the exercise price change.
		-4	On September 22, 2014 the Company issued 1,325,000 warrants with a strike price of $0.50 per warrant in conjunction with placement agent services for the Company’s September 2014 private equity placement. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $296,000 on the issuance date.
		-5	On November 26, 2014, the Company issued 325,000 warrants with a strike price of $0.50 per warrant for compensation for investor relations services provided. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $43,000 on the issuance date.
		-6	On December 1, 2014, the Company issued 961,539 warrants with a strike price of $0.78 per warrant and on December 15, 2014 issued 961,538 warrants with a strike price of $0.50 per warrant to settle legal disputes resulting from claims made by the investors in the November 2013 private equity placement. The warrants issued on December 1, 2014 were issued concurrent with 423,077 shares of the Company’s common stock in partial settlement of the claim from two investors. The Company settled all remaining claims with all remaining investors in the November 2013 private placement on December 15, 2014 by issuing the second tranche of warrants and setting the price of each warrant series issued at $0.50 with no further reset provisions. The combined issuance of the warrants and expense resulting from any price changes were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $246,000 and expensed to general and administrative expense.

[1]	The 2014 Services Warrants April were issued for fees incurred in conjunction with the 2014 Convertible Notes. The warrants were valued on the issuance date at $0.23 per warrant in conjunction with the valuation approach used for the 2014 Convertible Notes Warrants initial valuation.
[2]	The 2014 Convertible Notes Warrants ("Convertible Notes Warrants") were issued in conjunction with the April 2014 Convertible Notes described in Note 8 above. The Convertible Notes Warrants were originally issued with an exercise price of $0.78 per share and have anti-dilution price protection whereby if the Company issues any common stock, or securities convertible or exercisable into common stock at a price per share less than the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants, the Company is obligated to reduce the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants to an exercise price at, or below the new issuance price. On September 22, 2014, the Company issued approximately 26.7 million common shares at a price per share of $0.15 as described in Note 11 above. In conjunction with this issuance, the Company received a waiver from the warrant holders which waived the reset of their exercise price which would have been to $0.15 per share. The terms of the waiver required the Company to reduce the warrant exercise price to $0.50 per share, from $0.78 per share and also required the Company to make a further adjustment to the exercise price on March 22, 2015. On that date, the Company is obligated to reset the warrant exercise price to the lower of the current exercise price of $0.50 per warrant, or to an exercise price equivalent to 70% of the weighted average price of the Company's common stock for the preceding 10 trading days prior to March 24, 2015. The Company currently accounts for the Convertible Notes Warrants as derivative liabilities. On March 24, 2015 the Company adjusted the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants to $0.11 per share. Issuances of future securities below $0.11 per share would require an additional reduction in the Convertible Notes Warrants exercise price.
[3]	The 2014 Services Warrants September were issued to a consultant in exchange for advisory services with no readily available fair value. The warrants were originally issued at $0.78 per warrant and had a one-time price reset provision to the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants if the exercise price of the Convertible Notes Warrants changed prior the September 30, 2014.

The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at $131,000 on the issuance date with an additional $6,000 recorded to expense on September 22, 2014 to reflect the change in fair value resulting from the exercise price change.
