Electrical Items
Modern electrical consumer products manufactured in Taiwan include calculators and watches, kitchen appliances, audiovisual equipment, and computers, among others. For these items, it is best to shop only at government-approved department stores, where the electrical items for sale are generally of export quality, quality, mostly UL-and FCC -approved, and safer and more durable than cheaper items purchased from night markets or small stores.

The Kuang Hua Market, (under the overpass at Pateh Rd., Sec. 1 and Hsinsheng S. Rd.) has scores of shops offering computers and parts, software, electronic games and gadgets, and second-hand books. The selection is vast and prices are competitive. Hsimenting has a variety of shops offering calculators, watches, radios, and stereos.
