QUOTE(treblecase @ May 16 2015, 02:12 PM) Why don't you point me to your err..point? Never states made in USA in the Vaporshark website unlike the Provari & Vaporflask which proudly states it. Don't you find that interesting? Start your research from there.

QUOTE(treblecase @ May 16 2015, 02:37 PM) Well, I've never bemoan the fact that it's not made in USA. Did I not mention the SX mini in the same breath? My point is not the history of VS or what not but the disappointment in buying an original product that can be easily cloned. Blame Evolv maybe. Or perhaps VS should use their own chip. What's your point actually? It came to a point where posters here were putting it in the 'superior' category because its made in USA. There was a post here: "I am still thinking how can China made SX mini priced on par with USA made rDNA 40." That really bugged me. It should never be that a product is superior just because its made in so and so country. Whats ironic is that the RDNA is not made in USA. Just the Evolv chip.

@ cyapd & treblecase,
Good for you guys. I really got disillusioned when I came across a quotation of only US5.00/piece for quantities of 100pcs of a 50W box mod. The stuffs' dirt cheap.
"most of the things we buy today are manufactured in the mainland."
So is the Vaporshark. Albeit not the chip.

QUOTE(treblecase @ May 16 2015, 04:58 PM) Did you watch pbusardo's videos about his trip to China? I know about the manufacturing capabilities (not necessarily innovation) of China but I'm flabbergasted when companies like Kangertech employs more than 4000 people just to make those subtanks many are enjoying today. That's just one company with a workforce dwarfing that of many public listed companies here. I really have no idea of the scale of the e-cig industry & how big a market it is but just Kangertech alone is enough to put a chill in your spine. And then still, there exist a market for subtank clones. PBusardo is a prick. He is biased against non whites. Its reflected in his reviews. In his video about the clone factories, he was trying to paint a picture of "Evil Cloners" and their slaves in filthy underground factories In reality they're just machine shops.The workers there are just trying to earn a living. In the video, the Chinese girl said that they were sent an item from America and they were making copies of it as per the order. In the comments section Busardo had to back down when everybody commented the conditions were the same in machine shops in US and UK. As for Kanger, the Subtank Nano clone sold in FT has been found to be 100% identical to the authentic. The question is did Kanger dump it so that they can profit from both the authentic and clone markets. If I wanted a Sub Nano, I'd certainly buy the identical looking clone which costs 1/3 of the authentic. The outrage is when clones are sold at authentic prices.

QUOTE(SonnyCooL @ May 16 2015, 07:03 PM) please learn how manufacture work, on building line, working line, packing line .... then u should have clearer picture of Manufacture defects means ... I said Kanger may have wanted to tap both markets. And yes they could have mixed in units that were slighty inferior. Learn how marketing works and about how to tap every possible market.
