My professional experience doesn't bear that out.Originally Posted by Archer1440
Everyone seems to assume that all contract manufacturers have zero internal controls and just ship everything regardless of quality. I can assure you that is not the case.
What Archer1440 said is most definitely not true.

I've been a senior engineer and product manager for a well known, global company for nearly 30 years. If you need examples, I can supply them.
No need. I have 28 doing the same exact things.
Your contention is hardly a refutation of my point that outplant work (with insufficient precautions) means large batches of potential problem parts may be produced before a problem is detected.
Perhaps you might pay more attention to what I said in parenthesis.
Replace in-house with outplant, under the same conditions, and you'll get the same exact result. I've been party to too many damned containment actions for parts made in house to believe otherwise.
And yet you said I was untruthful when I said it was a possibility. Make up your mind.
Wait a couple of weeks, and they might be a little cheaper.. Something tells me they're not exactly going to be flying off the shelves..

I have a chance to purchase new at $500. Hoping if something doesn't work that somebody will figure out a work around. However, did a lot of these work and keep going?
