Is that the same Ring as automotive accessories? Those seem to get poor
press on Amazon.

Yup. All made in China. Warehouse near Leeds.

But most electrical equipment is made in China, is it not? My new
mobile is made in China. I expect if I bought an iPhone it would be
made in China too. Much as I would like to support UK manufacturing,
I think the days of saying goods made in China are of poor quality are
long gone.

Try buying the cheap Chinese stuff on Ebay. I've got rechargeable batteries here which have 20% of their rated capacity. The chargers work though.

I'm not saying there is no tat made in China; I'm saying not all that
is made in China is tat.
