I'm not inclined to entertain your trolling. If you feel like the manufacturer is falsely representing the product, take it up with them.

Nice, thanks for the info.
The translucent red version makes your juices flavor pop a little more.
I see. Anything disturbing you is a "trolling".
I am sorry, I'll let you be.

Also, you seem to be conflating the terms "chip" and "board". Unfortunately this is common on ECF among those who have never worked with electronics.
As I understand you, to be "made in USA" there should be a board, but a chip could be made anywhere?
Chip is much more important than a board.
P.S. there are too little that could be qualified as "made in the US" in electronics (we are not talking about defense, aren't we?)
This says nothing. {IMO} made means assembled. The 'parts' could very well come from China. All this tells me is they plan to make them better than the China made ones.
You made me think.
Not good on Friday night. Bourbon etc.
But thank you anyway. I appreciate your suggestion. I really do not know what "made in the USA" means. It's time to learn. At least tomorrow it will be time to learn.
Thank you (and now I am dead serious: thank you).
You are 100% right.
And the chip is what a board made for. Chip is the king/

OK. I have made an incredible effort (in spite of bourbon influence) and have learned that the main requirement of FTC is: Manufacturers and marketers should use the cost of goods sold or inventory costs of finished goods in their analysis. So, if the box made in the US is $20 and the chip made in China is $10, then the whole thing could be marketed as "Made in the USA". So, I was right from the beginning. It is the chip that make it work. Not box. Does "Made in the USA" make any sense in this case?
Put down the bourbon and go to bed 
You need to contact USA Ohmmeter with your questions about all the components, not the OP of this thread.

damn for something that is 3d printed and look so unfinished that is pricey. what is that 45$. I think I may pick up just one of their regular super ohm meters though. Id buy the 3d printed one if they at least sanded or made it look finished, just has so much of that ugly burling 3d printers make.
Regardless where the parts are made, bottom line, they are good reliable ohm meters. I have one of the Ultimates.
So the tenths are accurate, the hundredths ... not so much. Sounds like a common ohm reader.
Many of the components that make up a chip set are not made in the US. Which means they come from BFE. There are simply no other choices.

Rec'd my 3D printed Derringer Chuff caps today. The pink one snapped in 1/2 in under 5 min & if you look closely you can see the other one is breaking as well..... 
Already contacted them--waiting to hear back.

Funny....some of the loudest nay sayers in this thread were also the loudest in a provari thread recently.... But over there, they were defending China. Lol, how fun!
Anyway, thanks for the heads up Inswva. Putting one in the cart!

Yeah, the Derringer caps are garbage. I purchased a silver one and also received a white one, gratis. I ordered without realizing these were printed based on a Derringer clone... fine, whatever. The diameter is okay but the AFC cutouts aren't even close. I'm pretty disappointed since everything I've purchased from USA Ohm Meters in the past has been top notch.
I have one of the 3d printed meters. It works good but a little pricy. I wanted something different tho
