New Samsung LED - LM561h LM301h

Nearly all of Samsung’s LED fabrication is in China, which is the irony? hypocrisy? of their “Made in the USA” promotion. Even when and if they ever get their half-million dollar machine up and running in Florida they will be soldering China-made diodes on China-made PCBs. So much for American-made. They should spend some of that half-mil on some plane tickets and a Rosetta Stone - Mandarin edition CD instead of indulging the Chinese xenophobic trolls on RIU. I tried making the X2 red/blue strip in the U.S. Best bid I got was from a well-known specialty LED maker in Texas, which came in at $86 per strip, just to produce - design and shipping fees not included.
