Great clip , no risk of being poisoned by lead or plastic fumes or the battery exploding
it would have been much better if they had used a UK branded battery

U.K. branded but probably made in India or China.
Perhaps it's now time to look for the country of origin before buying, I recently bought a new Karcher window vacuum, as I had returned the previous one (made in Lithuania) because it stopped working. The new one was made in Italy. 2 weeks later Karcher sent me another new one made in Lithuania!

I was initially concerned as to health and safety but once I realised they were all wearing sandals it put my mind at ease!

Re: Cheap rebuilt batteries from India anyone?
I took great care to restore my bike with original parts. I bought an alternator stator, packed in a beautiful green box branded LUCAS (from a well known dealer), and an ammeter of the same brand. They both work, but neither is marked "Made in England"...But I am proud to say that my tyres, DUNLOP K82, are made in France, in Montluçon ! For performance bikes, Michelin tyres are made in Spain !

I love the Bosch ads on TV, the machines are not made in Germany. I think even Miele aren't entirely German anymore.
