Of course it's only badge engineering but it's an interesting
reflection on CORGI that they should try to exploit their reputation with
the public by putting their name to what must be, at best, fairly meh
bits of kit.

erm .... As CORGI is a long defunct entity I was under the impression
"they"don;t have a reputation anymore?

Well the name is still well known even if they no longer have the
government sponsored accreditation gig...

(gov apparently did not realise they did not have the rights to the name
and thought they could shift it to them that are now Gas Safe)

Just numerous shady shysters happily allowing gullible punters to
believe they do by putting "corgi" all over anything?

Presumably the dodgy shysters would actually need to be CORGI to use
their trade mark since they still exist as a legal entity and hence
could defend their trade mark.
