Always a good argument between cheap and nasty and expensive quality.
In the case of RVing we are not orbiting in Space depending on each little gizmo for life itself. With the cheap equipment we have that breaks, we have redundancy so we can keep camping and not have to go home early. Once home we just get a new replacement gizmo. No big deal.
We don't need super high quality never fail equipment for what we do, so why pay for it? Be crazy.
In fact, the cheap and nasty stuff seems to do quite well. Got some things that last years and years, while others only last weeks. It might be that if it will break it will fairly soon after being put in use, so the one year warranty is fine and you get that anyway.
It is a pretty good system in actual fact. (for us RVers--pretty tough business to be in for making a living though)
