Knock on wood, but I think Sensor Watch Pro has been given a reprieve. (We manufacture in the USA but our supply chain, like many others, depends on China). https://www.politico.com/news/2025/01/20/trump-tariffs-day-one-00199280

Mercifully we sprinted to get as much as we could out of China last year. There’s one big part left — the boards we need to send to @MakeAugusta for assembly here in the good old US of A — and this is going to add $275 to their cost. If it had applied to everything, the extra 10% would have made Sensor Watch Pro cost an extra $1200. And every $1 added to my cost adds $2.50 to the price you pay, to keep my American small business and my American distribution partner going. It’s all pretty great 🫠
