Hi All.
Did any one noticed that Hella Electrical Equipment are made in China and no longer Germany. Are they still gonna be the same quality or are we paying really expensive for China goods.
What over good quality relays can we use as the cheap China, India and Itallian parts are well .................cheap unreliable crap.
Regards.

Hi Hercules
I see some of the relays I have been using are made in China and I have already had 1 dud. I also bought Hella ones and I will look in the morning and see where they were made. I try where possible to give Made in China a miss but it is becoming increasingly difficult. The problem with Hella is the price will stay the same and they will make more profit at our expense

Hi guys
I would think that probably 90% of all electrical equipment are manufactured in the East - esp China. The material used is the same but the production costs are so much less that Western countries cannot compete any longer.
Hella etc just moved their factory to China. If you buy a Philips product (EU) chances are it is made in China.
