Hey now... I got to meet Otmar [insert last name] - the guy that designed/builds the Zilla controller... From what he said, it sounds like all of the mfr'ing is done in house and by hand (I believe they still have a 6 month waiting list)
Hell, they even go so far as to "pair" IGBT's into sets so one doesn't fry before the rest due to slightly differing tolerances... That's some awesome QC - and one of the reason's why people are willing to pay $2K
