The chip scale components can all be bought separately online, manufacturers are based in Asia, Europe and North America, and the units are relatively robust and affordable, Ed On Wed, Nov 7, 2018, 10:58 AM Alan King via SEGMIN <[email protected] wrote: > > > I’m not sure how accurate this is but could be interesting.
