Lamptron getting hit hard

With the fiasco of G-Vans hitting the scene and information coming forwards of Lamptron not paying its employes over in china and late payments to it factories that actually make the fan controllers things seem to be slipping.

I actually got hold of two of the Lamptron FC-9's which supposedly from reviews are good how ever found some major flaws in its design. One of them being the slider buttons actually came lose rendering the channel to be of no use what so ever. We all so found by pushing the controller to its stated wattage (60 watts per channel) it blew the caps sky high. This again Points out a fact that these reviews you see on sites are rubbish as none of them failed to mention these problems or have not tested them properly.

Another point to note is that shoving so much juice though such a controller is dangerous as the controller is self is not covered exposing high voltages to the user. It makes us wonder if any of these electronics has passed any real certified testing in the EU at all and thus putting us the consumer at risk.

Do you believe what reviews type?

Its been noted that reviews get paid to review and if they up set the companies they review for they lose the companies support. This in turn makes the reviewers second think what the say or type and once again makes the review tainted. Large web sites such as OC3D, Hexus and many others have become a haven for such problems. Lastly there was a review for a case that had so many problems such as Ill fitting filters, Ill fitting for water cooling rads (the fans did not line up) yet the case was supposed to be a water cooling case and yet OC3d Saw fit to still give it a Gold award which realy bad considering these points are major flaws in its design.

I tend to now stay away from these review sites and never believe a word they say. They are simply out to promote there sponsors and get paid for doing so.

This is the offending Video review ->
