Ya but... has anyone actually seen the inside of one?
That is actually the Chinese culture and they are not shameful about it anymore than we are shameful about creating a successful business.Drop a nuke on them. I despise people that lack the drive to create their own widget and simply copy one that someone else created.
Then why are so many copies such utter crap?That is actually the Chinese culture and they are not shameful about it anymore than we are shameful about creating a successful business.
One must understand their culture to understand what's going on. They're actually doing it to spaceX now! They are attempting to copy Musk's Falcon and Dragon. (check out youtube video)
The Chinese do not view copying the works of others as a dishonorable thing, in fact, pretty much just the opposite.. Their culture views it as a success story.
I think its because they're made to look the same but inside is maybe a lower quality to facilitate profit? Just a guess.Then why are so many copies such utter crap?
I didn't go searching for it or anything.. I think it was in the "New Posts" link.. you know, where the website shows all the latest post we haven't seen?Also, why did you dig up this old thread
There was another thread about similar subject where @MurphyGuy replied that got deleted by a moderator. Even an account was deleted.I didn't go searching for it or anything.. I think it was in the "New Posts" link.. you know, where the website shows all the latest post we haven't seen?
But after scrolling back, I see the time stamps make it look like I dug it up.. I hadn't looked at the time and thought it was a new post.

What is inside the box varies from item to item (really). It's often not even an attempt to clone the original product beyond the shell.
They manufacture for Victron.Agreed, except it doesn't sound like an actual copy beyond what you can see on the outside and without "Victron" on it:
Now if they actually did copy the internal workings to the same degree of manufacture but sold it for 1/3 the price of genuine Victron, then they'd have a real copy. As it stands, anyone who buys this deserves the pure junk they get...maybe the "nuke" will be on them when their house burns down. I hope to God that no one actually experiences that, but that's a risk one would take. If it sounds too good to be true...
The irony of all this, the Chinese consumer is very very discerning and critical. I retired from an auto OEM, and to sell in China, required higher quality than the typical US consumer. They even have service lifts in the showroom to show off the pretty underside too. A spot of rust on a bolt head, forget it.

That have resell rights under their own brand when Victron’rs demand falls short of contractual terms.
They originate nothing.ok something to remember, when a company has their products made in china they are making a deal with the devil , meaning China will make your stuff then copy it and start to compete against you. Everyone should know China does not care about copyrighted items... this should come as no surprise
Look back at post #30:Do tell. Where can I verify this? Or how did you come to learn of this?
When the customer (Victron) purchases fewer units than forecasted, this allows the Chinese / Indian manufacturer to recover material cost without forcing the customer (Victron) to pick up the tab.
