Thermaltake-chinese or taiwanese?

[370forlife]

Looks like thermaltake pulled a fast one or uses the same label for all fans.







Seems like they could have gone the extra mile and just used a different label or modified this one...the OEM is hong sheng, which is a Taiwanese funded company out of Hepan Industrial Zone, Hengli Village,
Hengli Town, Dongguan City, China. Hmmm....

do they lie about the bearing type too?

Has one ball and one sleeve bearing

Lost the box long ago, but I recall being suspicious about "long life ball bearing" (not plural)

Thats what I was thinking, to me they are about the same. Especially since hong shen is in china, just funded by thermaltake and other Taiwanese companies to produce their products.
