Supply chain for electronics nothing compares to China and Shenzhen, the people that can make little things at a moments notice, it's not very comparable.

There was a part we looked at, comparable came from the Nintendo Wii.

This part came from this little hackey shop in Shenzhen.

But it could be I think if there were more demand for it.
