shame they can't manufacture in the US.
- knowaveragejoe 10y agoThey could, but not at the price point they're trying to meet.
- djsumdog 10y agoProbably not even at a higher price. There aren't a lot of high volume fabrication shops in the US.
- Twirrim 10y agoThe thing is, you're not even talking high volume at this stage. It's still relatively small production runs. They could have done their earlier products through a US based fabrication shop to get the cash flowing, then switched to a Chinese one once they'd got a steady income and could work through these hassles.
- mbreese 10y agoGiven all of the Chinese electronics manufacturing, would the required components even be available in the US? I assume many if not all of the individual components would also be made in China... so maybe it's just more convenient (in addition to cheaper) to have the entire product made there?
- DanBC 10y agoThey're talking about a few thousand items which isn't high volume.
