that sucks… but you know what, who ever copied that design, will now use that information to make it look even more authentic… the circuit design will probably stay the same, but they’ll probably change the box and the height of the timer itself…

I would figure there are certain manufacturing differences which caused the size of the knockoff to be larger. I don’t think they’ll adress that as it might cause their cost to go up too much.
