Chinese company pretending to be American

I bought a Jackery power station. Of course it is made in China. Their US website presents the company as American, but the language they use gives them away.

[quote] Founded in 2012 in California, USA, Jackery was born with a vision to offer green energy to everyone, everywhere. In 2016, Jackery launched the world's first outdoor portable power stations and, two years later, developed the world's first portable solar panels. Having introduced solar generators to the great outdoors, Jackery fulfills the power needs of every nature-lover, inspiring them to explore further and seek more extraordinary experiences than before. We encourage global adventurers to enjoy the outdoors sustainably, working together to protect our planet and build a better future.

This sounded to me like something translated from Chinese. The product manual includes phrases like “Please kindly check if the one you get is the same as the one you ordered.” Again, not what an American company would say.

I did some research and Jackery is a brand owned by Shenzhen Hello Tech Energy Co. Ltd

Seen anything else like this?
