Hi all. I'm new to some of this, and while looking around Ali, I saw this switch that looks a lot like the Hasivo. They seem to be somewhat less expensive. I am just wondering if there are any common sense rules to have a reasonably confident guess if they're the same inside? I hope that makes sense. From a past thread I've read, it would seem that we'd be waiting for someone to buy it, open it, check the management / firmware, etc. This is just me wishing in one hand that this is a new low price.

I'm the reviewer on that item. They're identical to the Hasivo switches.
Similarly to Mokerlink, ONTi, etc., POEPLUS is a brand that sells rebranded Hasivo switches. It should be the same switch apart from the branding, as long as you pick the model with the same specs.
A support person from POEPLUS actually went above and beyond what could be expected by helping me get Hasivo to develop a new firmware for my Hasivo switch (different model). That was despite me not even buying anything from them.
They can also give the same firmware to their own customers too of course, but still. Based on that, I would feel comfortable buying from them.Also, there's have a $2 store coupon in the coupons section, and if you collect some coins then you should see this item on the coins page with an additional 4% discount (9% total), and there's a $10 or $12 sale coupon depending on which one you buy.
So e.g. the most expensive one has $25.60 discounts for me today.
