Is this "Cleqee Direct" store's 300MHz 5000V oscilloscope probe good?

Who do you think are doing this "rebadging" you're talking about for all your "big brands"?

Ummm, it’s already been stated: Stäubli.

They will happily make branded versions of their products for other manufacturers. (For example, back when Philips still made test gear, their test leads were Multi-Contact. Philips test gear became part of Fluke, and Multi-Contact became Stäubli. Fluke’s own test lead/connector manufacturer, Pomona, doesn’t make insulated oscilloscope probes, so Fluke continues to get those from Stäubli.)

Hmm' could it be a vendor in China?
If so.. who??.. as I highly doubt they are dropping out of the sky.. that is what is explained above.. as far as I can tell.. It looks to be Zhongce.. but maybe you can examine a bit and not simply deliver noise in lack of better.

I have these probes and tried to examine who makes them,  I explained it above what I found out... IF you can supply anything of relevance.. let me hear it.

What, you seriously think only Chinese companies will make OEM stuff for others?

A “wild guess” is literally all you’ve provided. The only “evidence” you’ve shared with us is websites saying “for Keysight” (which anyone can say) and the visual similarities, which are completely useless as evidence since the Chinese will slavishly copy things.

I know that Stäubli makes their oscilloscope probes at their factory in Germany, and if you search for the “country of origin” for both Stäubli and Fluke oscilloscope probes, you’ll find “Germany” listed.

Stäubli also has a manufacturing site in China of its own, so even seeing “China” as a country of origin does not prove a given probe is a clone.

(The U1562A, for example, lists Malaysia. Keysight has its own manufacturing there, and it’s possible that they buy probes from elsewhere and do juuuust enough to them that the country of origin can be labeled as Malaysia. Or it’s a clerical error by someone who doesn’t understand what “country of origin” actually means and listed the place it ships from, not where it was made.)

Ok so now you made me curious. I have quite a collection of these (name brand) and had a look at the "manufactured in..." section. I know there are various loopholes around final assembly, but thought it was interesting. So here goes nothing.

Rohde&Schwarz RT-ZI10 500MHz, 1:10: not stated (seems to be the same as Fluke VPS410-II)
Fluke VPS510-G 500MHz 1:10 compact probe: Germany
Fluke RS400 Accessory Set: Germany
Fluke VPS101 30MHz 1:1: Germany
Fluke AS200-R/G Accessory Set: Germany
Fluke VPS200-G 200MHz 1:10: Germany

All of these are CAT III or even CAT IV rated, carry the UL listed, CE and double insulation marking. All of them are also stamped on the probe (and not only the manufacturer name).
