rietveld Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I noticed 2 of my Adam KBs are made in Japan and 1 is made in Taiwan. Are there any differences ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginalJohn Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Japan: Uses superior inks in the creation of the label. Both the printing of the label, and the dot-matrix print of the model, serial and FCC id are darker and more robust. However, Japan used the outdated method (and skewed print) of rubber-stamping the serial number. Taiwan: Inks are lighter in color, but they used their noggins to print the serial number instead of rubber stamping it. Did I pass the test? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youki Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 the Japan one has 10 times more value than the Taiwan one. Lot of less has been produced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the labels say printed in the USA, but can we verify that they weren't then shipped off to Japan or Taiwan where the additional information was printed and then affixed to the 'Made in Taiwan/Japan' shell? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
