I maybe wrong but maxspect doesn't have a patent yet. It's in application stage so a lawsuite based on patent infringement may not be possible until it gets approved. But Jebao definitely copied maxspect point to point in this one. One asian company sending waring to another asian company, the irony both of these are probably manufactured in the same factory.

Ordered 2 & forgot the damn wi-fi option. Will see how it goes.

USA patents mean nothing in China.

There is no real enforcement in China, no real recourse for manufacturers.

NA based retailers can be sued...that's about it.

So you now (or when they're back in stock) have the option of buying a product even more cheaply made than the original product of questionable quality? Frankly putting something like this with an electrical cord in my tank, at 1/2 price of a similar product would make me nervous. Don't care whether it's a low piece of hardware in the water, somewhere up the line it still hooks up to 120VAC and if they can manufacture it so cheaply as to undercut the original, well...... knock yourself out, I won't be camping on the doorstep for one of these.


I think there may be a post or 2 on this subject on our fine forum here as well.
