Recall last week's IP Cameras Lose Buy America Protection.
This is another example of the benefits of keeping Buy America protection and rewarding companies that choose to move operations to the USA.
China makes sure foreign video surveillance manufacturers manufacturer there. Recall how Axis continues to make cameras in China for China customers.

I hope they understand what Made in USA means and not just "Assembled in the USA".

Interestingly I didn't know dahua manufacture now
after standing up at cpse in china mr fu
ceo of dahua swore he would put the 2000 plus camera manufacturers in china out of business
then in next breath dahua subcontracted out all their manufacturing to various sweat shops in china
hence we use to get different firmware depending who dahua subcontracted too
im glad we don't sell their crap anymore

Mr fu ceo thought he had his bags packed
he and his wife cashed 700 m usd in shares
I did think to ask if he needed help carrying the bags to the airport when he runs away from this impending disaster

One of the bigger Buy America challenges has historically been transit and transportation when projects are funded by the FTA. Dahua's Transit guy lives in Houston. I'm going with "not a coincidence".

Hi
I would like to simply state
unless manufacturing support is given or penalties imposed on imports it's impossible to manufacture cameras in the west
we run A camera manufacturer in china
the average cost of building an analogue camera is 1 usd in west this would be 5
duevto the amount of testing and handling involved
its just another con
probably just put them in a new box or tighten a screw

yes unfortunately i use to sell dahua
had 14 people in my returns department shovel dahua shit all day long
broke our backs getting dahua to work
they send us untested unfinished firmware ask us if it works
maybe their products not so sick these days
i think their hdd issue still there
mr fu wouldnt invest 1 usd in a decent sata controller
one bad sector and hard drive is toast
i dont think you can really call your self a true importer until you need a container to put your returns in
yes if their was a league for moving shit i think i would get a gold or silver medal
