China Brand Flash Trigger Called Dison

The flash trigger that I use in my photo studio is of a China brand called Dison. You probably have not heard of it unlike PocketWizard from the USA. Neither did I hear of the brand when I first bought it. Since the photo studio lighting retailer included it into my purchase of a 3 kit mono light flash studio, I was more than eager to give the Dison brand a try. It worked like it should when I started using it in my photo studio. Well, at least for the first three weeks. Less than a month of using the flash trigger on a daily basis, the thing died on me.
I was swearing like a mad man for the next few weeks. Yes, I did not immediately take it to the shop although the salesperson told me that I can exchange it with a new replacement because the problem occurred within three months of use. Nonetheless, I finally had it exchanged for a new set. One of the sales men informed me that even with a PocketWizard brand, one might be simply unfortunate to have bought a defective unit. He added that there is usually at least one unit in a box of 100 units that is defective.
