Here is my e-mail to EE Tools, followed by their reply, 2 days after I bought a new Chipmax2 universal device programmer:
How can you claim in your advertising "Made and Supported in the USA"
reply:
I'm sorry to feel that way. The chipmax 2 was developed in the US, and was made in the US as well. In our earlier production, it was assembled in Korea due to the cost of labor there was cheaper than here, but now it was made in the US
