Managed to source a 12V 10A PSU for my Qnap TS-653B NAS. 4-pin DIN connector was also purchased separately and a local electrician assembled and welded the pins. Now working correctly. Even the hard drives which had developed pending sector count managed to fully fix themselves after a low level format. My frankenstein 10gbe monster is alive with 17TB usable space.
 
My mobile phone (Asus Max Pro M1) battery has started to bulge. Bought from Flipkart in Nov 2018. An Asus Max Pro M2 in my house has the same problem.
Me trying to slowly move to Non-Chinese products. It’s quite easy for me as most things in my house are already non-Chinese. Some might be made in China though.
How are Asus phones? I want to replace my OnePlus 7 with Asus Rog Phone II. The Asus router in my DP is made in Vietnam.

I can't say for sure but Asus phones are notorious when it comes to battery degradation. I still have Asus Zenfone 2laser ze550kl brought in 2015 and the battery started bulging withing 1-2 years. Asus care told me to come to Delhi's Nehru place(I was in Delhi at that time) to get it replaced. I got the same battery from ebay while the website existed. Or ask Asus care if they have spare batteries.
 
@sanke3 tip end phones should do good. Take a look on Asus forum for your respective model. You will get an idea how is the phone wet performance, after sale support, updates amongst others.
 
My microwave went kaput. But i am imposed strict lockdown at my place. So had to get a new one. Other minor things, I fix myself.
 
My Asus Max Pro M1 is made in Indonesia. Avoid Asus phones/tablets (Or for that matter anything built by them for any other label) like plague. My Nexus 7 went kaput in 13 months after the Mobo went phut. Max Pro M2 in my house has a bulging battery in 13 months. My phone has the same problem & now it has a blue patch on the screen all in 18 months. ☹
BTW: Asus is an Taiwanese company. I stopped buying Chinese company products long ago.
