Says it meets UL & CUL requirements. Doesn't actually say it's UL & CUL certified.

Whenever someone asks a question that starts with "Why do they..." or "Why don't they...", the answer is always a) money, b) stupidity, or c) both.

Says in the description part of the page "15 Amp 125 Volt, wall plate included, auto-test function, UL certified, white". Also it has the UL logo in the product pics. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

one thing I've found with some of these off brand receptacles and switches is that the white plastic can discolour pretty quickly

Just FYI the only acceptable certifications for electrical devices are ULC and CSA.

UL wouldn't be considered certified for use in Canada.

I took a quick look at this and didn't see ULC, but that doesn't mean it isn't.

Fair enough. I wasn't going to buy it anyway. Just making an observation.

i installed one.There is a solid green light and an occasional random flash/blink of the red light on the other side. Is it the automatic self-testing feature?
This is mentioned also in the first review.
