A loud "****" is totally acceptable then. I paid much more from a US retailer. waited too long for return policy. You don't have to pay import fees importing from UK??? I've been charged before and it made purchase not worth it. But unsure if it applies on small boxes. Is it a luck factor?

I was tempted by one of the European units too, but ultimately decided to buy a US one after discussing with the company directly due to long term support. Here is the email I received from them in response:
"Nick - different areas of the world are covered by different licenses. That looks like it’s sourced from the UK, so it cannot be SFI approved. Note they have blurred out the SFI label.
This is a European unit, sold in Europe to a European retailer. It is a factory produced HANS, supplied by us, but they are not supposed to re-export it to the USA. If it does wind up back here, we treat it as a grey market part. We won’t service it or recertify it. It’s your call who you want to support with your purchase.

So, it might be worth it for a buyer to spend the extra money on your unit vs one of the Demon Tweeks ones, as they will have better support down the line for either resale or recertification. GLWS!
