Most times they are exactly like the original .......companies merge or sell seconds instead of throwing it away ......no one can or wants to re invent the wheel ........so it goes to a third world country for a profit........sometimes you get a lasting product or you get burned an swear off Chinese made brands ......so try it if ur in a jam or shop elsewhere ......

Most Chinese parts aren't good. It never lasts long. Cheaply made. Not durable. They usually reverse engineer everything, and use low quality material. Only for anesthetics, would mid or high quality parts be used at times, a marketing scheme. Functionality is a pain thereafter.

[marlener]

he could just buy an sr and work the bracket 100 amps right there, for $350 or a QR for ah 500 100 plus amps. some minor adjustment and yuh in the game, forget the Chinese and deal with the Japanese.
