Power-supply assembly line — workers in ESD garments populating boards

Power & connectivity manufacturer · A US company you deal with

One US company you can hold accountable — a manufacturer in China and Vietnam.

We own our factories in China and Vietnam and make AC/DC adapters, chargers, power supplies, and cable assemblies on our own lines. So you get maker's pricing, a China-plus-one origin choice built in, and one accountable contact on US paper. When you need something we don't make, we source it to the same standard.

We own the factories. And we're a US company you can hold accountable.

Most companies selling you power and cable are brokers who found a factory on a marketplace. We are the factory — our own lines in China and Vietnam — with a US company in front of it. You get maker's economics, one person who owns the outcome, and straight answers about what we can and can't do.

01

We own our factories

Not a broker, not a trading desk — we make the product on our own lines. You get a maker's price and a maker's answer, not a markup and a disappearing act once the container clears.

02

Two countries, you choose the origin

Our factories run in both China and Vietnam on one drawing set. Elect the country of origin that controls your duty — or shift the split as tariffs move — without qualifying a new supplier or re-listing a UL file.

03

One accountable US company

You contract with a US company and reach one person who owns the outcome: dollars, US terms, US jurisdiction. If something goes wrong, you call one number and a person picks up.

04

And we source whatever else you need

The factories are the core, not the ceiling. If it is power or connectivity hardware we don't make, we source it to the same standard we build to — so one partner covers the whole line.

What we make — and what we'll source.

Two lines we manufacture — power and connectivity — in our own factories in China and Vietnam. Standard SKUs or built to your drawing, with origin, certification, and documentation on every unit. The adjacent parts we don't make, we source to the same standard.

Need something we don't make? If it is power or connectivity hardware, we source it to spec — vetted the way we run our own lines. One partner for the whole line.

Our own lines, in China and Vietnam.

SMT and magnetics winding, injection molding, cable bunching, and 100% final test — the plant behind your build, not a marketplace listing.

See what origin is worth.

Our factories run in both China and Vietnam, so the origin you elect is a lever on your landed cost. Drag the shipment size and watch what choosing Vietnam over China is worth.

Duty you stop overpaying is pure margin. At a 10% net margin, every $1 you keep does the work of $10 in new sales — so this one origin election earns what a large order would, without winning one.

Shangye (Mike) Li, Principal of Kestner Supply, on the production line

The person who answers

One point of contact. Me.

I grew up around this business — I can tell you what the injection-molding line sounds like and how long the ICT test takes, because I've stood next to both. When you contact Kestner you reach one accountable person, on US paper and in US jurisdiction. If something goes wrong, you call one number and I pick up.

HTS 8504.40.85 · verified 2026-08-07 · estimate, not customs advice

Every build, documented.

The paperwork behind the product — the file your team and your customs broker actually need.

Certificate of originPer shipment, referencing the commercial invoice and bill of lading numbers — so your broker can enter it correctly.
Mill certificatesFor magnetics, enclosures, and copper — the inputs a transshipper cannot paper over.
Test reportsUL 62368-1 file number, DoE Level VI efficiency data, FCC Part 15 — verifiable at the source.
HTS & origin rationaleThe classification and the substantial-transformation basis for the origin, written down — not a claim printed on a carton.

How we establish country of origin →

We make it. So we know exactly what you're getting.

We run our own production lines in China and Vietnam — SMT and magnetics winding, injection molding, assembly, and 100% final test. Every unit is built, inspected, and warranted by the people who made it. That is the difference between a manufacturer and a broker who found a factory on a marketplace.

You get a single American company that stands behind what it sells. Not access to a factory, and not a broker's markup.
