My tanks are overflowing with some cool stuff that I am probably going to start giving away. I will have condition that anybody who takes them not have any Jeabo pumps or other equipment, so I wanted to take this opportunity to explain why so that everybody knows why I am a dooooche instead of just guessing as to why.
Jeabo steals American, EU and other countries Intellectual Property (IP, i.e. patents) and then copies them to sell at a discount. For me, and many others, this is the greatest threat to American businesses and businessmen in the world today. Innovation dies - why would anybody create new cool stuff just to have it stolen and sold for cheaper from China to an American Public that mostly does not know, but some that do not care? The worst case is that American companies have to lay off people with declining sales - there is usually enough sales for a smaller crew to stay aboard, but this is a hard explanation to the ones who lose their jobs. Some companies have to close completely. There will become a day when everybody has had this happen to them or is very close to somebody who has - only then will there be outrage. There is no way for an American company to stop this - The Donald has said that "china is killing us on trade" and while he is mostly coming from a place of ignorance and hyperbole in his speeches, he is right on accident and IP theft from China is a BIG deal. This does not stop at manufacturing - software IP theft from China is a huge issue that anybody who is in tech could probably write paragraphs about.
Everybody who has purchased a Jeabo pump has contributed in some very, very minuscule way to the making the American economy worse - probably not on purpose. I cannot support this company and feel the need to speak out about what they do in hopes of maybe even a few others becoming aware and choosing another product.
Before anybody starts with "competition is good" or "Honda made GM/Ford better," I want to point out that theft is not competition and other countries like Japan, Korea Europe and many other actually do their own R&D, can be sued for patent violations and have offices in US that companies can take issue with. Honda, Toyota are real global competition that is good - this is not. These arguments are all false equivalencies. I would rather people just say that they do not care about any of this and are buying the cheap stuff anyway.
"But they are so cheap, what can I do?" I have thought about this... For flow pumps, etither Maxspect or EcoDrift. Maxspect does not steal IP that I know of and designs and makes their own products - they had their Gyre stolen as Jeabo and renamed as Jecod to hopefully confuse a few more people.. AquaMedic has pumps in the same price range as the Jeabo stuff and has US offices in Loveland - support this local company. Any of these companies are at least competing on a global level and not stealing.
