According to the Q&A in the ge one, its 500v clamping but one of the question also says it has no surge protection. So not really sure. Also monoprice has a version of this and monoprice says its 500v clamping also. 500v is okay, not the best as things like anker is like over 600v and some generic ones are like 700v+

Otherwise we're talking about weak contact within the outlet, where movable parts are. There will be no overcurrent for the breaker to act upon - just a smallish local overheat...
Btw I would never use this particular device, as the swinging outlets are just asking for trouble over time as they wear out.
made in China is not a reflection of quality (or lack thereof)
Some of the greatest products are Made in China,,just like some of the worst are also Made in China.
The issue is therefore not where they were made but how, regardless of where they were made.
However, you can keep your head buried in the sand and dismiss Chinese progress while they are now serious contenders than cannot be dismissed with outdated cliches
The proper reaction should be to step up our game instead of exposing our lack of understanding with hasty generalizations
however:
- statistically, a german-made unfamiliar brand name is not junk.
- statistically, a chinese-made unfamiliar brand name is more likely to be junk.
as we speak i am wearing a seagull automatic watch made in china. i believe the quality is as good as best american or swiss made watches for a fraction of the price.

Looks a bit different though. Who knows if they are the same inside.

I thought lower clamping voltage was desirable for better surge protection. The best ones are like 330-400v afaik.

There are 2 actuation mechanisms in a breaker. Magnetic will shut off power immediately, within a fraction of a second - and will be triggered if the current well exceeds the rating, 6-10x nominal for a household breaker.
Thermal works at "regular" overloads, and it is slow. 2x rated current should trip the breaker in 30-120 seconds. 1.2x rated current may be tolerated for long, and actually be within the error margin of manufacturing tolerance and ambient conditions.
Idea is that the breaker should protect the wiring in the wall as an invisible source of trouble. Those wires will not overheat if working hard for a short time. Motor start is a classic example of a short overcurrent event.
If your house is 20 years old and has Romex wiring with PVC insulation, you're bumping into safety margins with your loads, but probably still good. (mine is 35, and I don't worry about wires) Tightening screws on breakers is one thing any decent electrician would do before starting the main job. Keeping an eye on a hard-working outlet, and possibly replacing it with a commercial-grade one, making sure wires are held by screws and not backstabbed may be a good idea..

There are likely millions of homes in similar situations, older wiring, outlet extenders, multiple high-power devices plugged into them. And yet I don't hear about fires in them that often. Usually those are the result of people falling asleep while smoking or using an oven or cheap coil-style electric heater plugged into a cheap power strip to heat a room.

That number is nothing to compare with 40 000 vehicle deaths, but still worth keeping an eye on your electrical system.

You can also mount that Sony OLED from the ceiling with some twine and bubblegum, and might as well put it outside while you're at it.
