I'm beginning to think that every power strip in the size class I'm shopping for is some kind of scam. The one I got might have a counterfeit UL label on it. Another brand's website talks about them being a "widely recognized company in North America” with a corporate address at a UPS Store at a mall and their factory pictures have signage in Chinese.
I think there needs to be some enforcement against Amazon to stop this. These products can be very dangerous.
