The point and what you said are valid, i've seen too many power supplies come from China which can only be called an electrical death trap and/or an EMC compliance nightmare.

Seriously, anyone can get power supplies that can kick out 6A, we don't need power supplies that will either throw out too much RFI or burn someones house to the ground, after all, anyone reselling these in Europe (and I assume other countries, but I wouldn't know) will be liable for it.

These are the same PSUs you buy in the US and EU from Amazon - it all comes from China. We looked at making a no PSU SKU and the price wouldn't make a lot of sense so everyone would buy the with PSU SKU.

1. Pieh0 is right, there is a big internal difference between a well designed quality psu and a cheap firestarter...
You are welcome to post a full CE check report and PICs from the internal design

2. It make no sense to pay high air freight cost for a PSU

So please offer them without PSU and let customer decide (if anybody want to buy them ;-))

We're talking about AC/DC PSUs, not ATX PSUs.

The non AC/DC package fundamentally didn't make any sense.

1) The U3 packaging includes the PSU internally and so its not as simple as not including the PSU in the first place. The PSUs would have to be actively removed.
2) The PSU's weight isn't significant at all compared to the miner.
3) The price difference was too small to make it worth creating another SKU.

1) no its not, it's an external brick like the BFL jalapeño had.
2) it probably is. Likely about 15% the weight of the final package
