I have a Tonghui DC load 8411. When I received it the firmware was very bugged, constant power mode was not working at all. The company answered in half a day and they sent me via email a new, working, firmware.
It still has some problems like the meter showing a DC offset also if it is disconnected (could be a problem of my unit).

That is usefull information. How long do you have the 8411? And from who/where did you buy it? From Aliexpress or a seller in Europe?

@Ludee: also thanks for your input. I appreciate it a lot.

I have send Tonghui a few emails asking about European distributors but no response so far.
trp806mo:
I uploaded the manual of the th8200 which is not the same type as what you are looking just for example.
I had those contacts in mid 2021 :
commercial thhongkong@hotmail.com (Linda Song) which warned me that the product was not EC (and so perhaps it's your issue for not having a distributor)
and a technical guy who answered to all my questions :

It's just for information as I have any clue of the "quality" of a Tonghui's Dc Load
nctnico:
I've send a message to Batterfly (Italy) about the TH8402A because Batterfly sells a lot of other Tonghui equipment. Their price is reasonable but I got no response yet on lead time and whether I can return it if it doesn't work as advertised.

About CE: The smaller Tonghui DC loads seem to have a CE mark while the bigger ones don't.
nctnico:
No reply from Batterfly about lead time & return policy (yet) so I decided that I'm going to order the Korad KEL2010 and see how it works. Meanwhile I have also found out that some of the Tonghui DC loads I have looked at are sold under BK Precision models BK8550 (175W) and BK8551 (300W). Unfortunately no European supplier has any stock at this moment.

The price for the DL3031 is about twice of that of the Korad / Tonghui for similar or even better specs.

Check price of DL3021 instead ;)
FYI, Rigol DL3000 electronic load series can be modified easily (all models have same HW) dl3021-to-dl3031-conversion-discussion

For 300W, I would go with Itech/BK Precision (in my experience Itech e-loads work well). Newer units have very nice binding posts with integrated 4mm banana sockets. Something like BK8500B
