There are alot of professional copy cat electronics companies in China. They are very very good at what they do as stated above even to the extent of falsifying firmware details.
These companies have multi million dollar workshops with very high end electronics making machinery.
They don’t stuff around about it at all and will copy anything of value with inferior electronics that cost a tenth of the price of the top end stuff they copied and sell it for the same price under the same [looking] banner with a very similar web address.
Yep they do the sticker on the back just the same they have the laser cutouts that look just right they print the boxes the same.
They don’t have to pay for research and development, safety testing or compliance and in the case of above they don’t have to fix any gear or payout warranties or replace products because they fade off into the distance while the manufacturer of the real products pays the price of bad product reviews.
legitimate companies of course know all this and can use it to advantage when they need to sell last season’s stock or b grade goods. They sell it under a slightly different format for the reason that they can then also not have to honour any warranties, replacements or refunds by saying it wasn’t their product but a fake.
I have an opinion of Mars Hydro and routinely click the mute button so you can guesstimate what it is.
I don’t know what the answer to the riddle is, I buy Chinese electronics all the time and the new Mars lights look ok with solid specs and testing.
Mr. hu is our big boss, he designed this, the patent should belong to him. And pls take down his personal info. from that post ASAP, It belongs to his privacy, thank you.
What a crock of shit!
I ordered a Meizhi light from amazon Feb 18. Same thing happened to my light, I contacted their “Official website” and explained the problem to a lovely woman named Mia.
We exchanged a few messages back and forth over a few nights.
Nights turned into weeks, then soon months. Talking about everything else…other than lights…
We’re happily married now with 16 children.
Dream big…
I got this email on Monday.
Good day~
This e-mail is about the issue of the broken grow light.
Is that OK that we resend you a grow light as the replacement?
If it is accpetable, please let us know the mailing address and contact number for delivery.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best regards,
Mia
“Is that OK?” Damn right it’s okay Mia, apple of my eye.
This came today.
Thanks for your response.
I have asked my warehouse staff to send you the grow light.
Once there is a tracking number, I will let you know by e-mail again:)
Have a nice day~
Mia
Note the smiley she added.
I think I’m in!
Moral of the story…
Mars tells lies simple as.
Proud Meizhi (Spiderfarmer) Fanboi.
Edit: The boards are exactly the same just different brands. It’s just other people have better customer service and shit.
If you didn’t fuck about changing fans internally because of noise the light prob wouldn’t have burned any diodes out
Cammy junt managing to swing a brand new light from them though mate
Are you mental that’s nowt to do with owt.
I changed the fan out the first week I bought it.
Why you got to be sooooooo fkn condescending about everything?
You Penis.
