An interesting exception to that was the Panasonic solar charger. I like it when these look like anomalies and makes me consider the mindset of different regions.
@snapster Interesting.. Apparently the counties aren't perfectly accurate! This is from the CX-10 day.. I've highlighted my county in red, but it showed no sales there.. I made two separate purchases on that day. I do know that my ISP is located one county to the east, so maybe my purchases showed up there?
@JonT Another possible reason for this.. I live in Beaver County (highlighted), but my mailing address is for a town in Lawrence County (the county to the north), while my ISP is in Butler County (to the east).. So I could see reasons for my purchase to show up in any of those 3 I suppose.. Also, I work in Allegheny County, which is to the south east (the darker green one), so it's possible I made my second purchase from there instead of home.. So I could be spread over 4 counties I suppose.
@kadagan I might be oversimplifying, but since meh has your shipping address from your purchase, it seems that would be the county they'd mark. Of course their city/town/village (or ZIP code?) to county mapping tables would have to be accurate and up to date.
Even the Dakotas? They still count as states, right? I mean we haven't ceded them to Canada or anything. Only a slow news day would have picked that up, so I'm asking.
It's definitely cool to see when that happens.

Pro-tip: don't forget you can click to see counties within regions on the map... although that tends to bring us down to earth a bit (oops pun lol)
@snapster woah. I just exercised the power of clicking on the state to see counties.... I HAVE THE POWER.

@kadagan from what I remember there needs to be at least 2 purchases from a county for them to show up colored in.
@JonT from 2 different users? Or should my 2 purchases in 2 separate orders show up?

@snapster Still no montana... cows and miners don't need no solar powered chargers!
@kadagan You'd be lucky to get pegged in the correct STATE.

@PocketBrain this made me laugh so I had to star it, but I am concerned about Dakotian lashback - Naaaaaaaah :)
