I'm not expert, but I suspect that this additional cost for electronic equipment could be one of the major contributing reasons that the time in some European countries can be up to 6 or even 8 hours off compared to "standard" North American time (EST.)
I'm just sayin...

I see there have been many projects like the Jackson Labs unit that have been imported into Europe. This is illegal. I don't mean to knick pick, but it costs our company about $10000 to CE mark a product. And if we add one small option, it must be CE marked again. To the small manufacturer, this kills us and doesn't allow us to offer low prices.
