Ratings disagree by 1 step
The engine rates this unit higher than the imported list, usually because the list de-tiers units that lack independent testing while the engine records that as low confidence instead.

Free text from the source, used by the engine as signals.
Very poor build quality and unknown number of suppliers, crucial protections not claimed.
