But nowhere on the product does it admit where it is made. Have a read of
a "garage screw-in light" (LED). All the proper markings are present, but
certainly are bogus. Have a read of the attachment documenting the latest
offering to the RF fog.
No attachment came through. Back when I was in the industry, items
couldn't be sold in the US without the proper labeling, or stickers. No
problem. Stickers could be bought on spools by the tens of thousands of
miles online, and you want a UL, CE, FCC labeling on the product,
"permanently affixed", if I recall correctly from the regulations, well
that was an extra tooling fee of a few bucks, and everything off the
line will have whatever you want molded into it, not because it meant
anything, but because it was a step in the requirements to sell in the
US. We had the option of sending our own text, or could choose from
pre-made examples, some with spelling, and grammatical errors. I think
the difference between "certified", "legal", "safe", "compliant", et
cetera, came out to about $3 per run in the end. This was in the 20-30
years ago range.
