Allow me to link to a completely random but otherwise comparable product [amazon.com] I do not personally recommend but which indicates the UL 498A listing's applicability to this product form factor. In fact, most any basic one to many AC outlet adapter without a cord would fall under this UL standard, as these Home Depot [homedepot.com] and Amazon [amazon.com] listings illustrate.
You can find a better deal, and likely build yourself a product better suited to your specific charging needs, by just constructing something like this out of a more traditional power outlet expander and a USB adapter.
Good luck!

It's profoundly not user-friendly.

if a company can sell a product that is equally safe without getting it passed by the agencies, then the savings customers get won't be wasted on burned down houses... the only question is who is able to tell it's design safety or willing to gamble?

I don't think "equally safe" is a term I could use in that scenario.

While these USB ports may not be the best, Belking is still selling RJ11 protection:

There are examples of properly certified product being unsafe - think 737MAX saga. Years of certification, months till hundreds corpses...

Just because you don't see the docs, it must be fake and useless!
Exactly! I'm going to fly only the ones that did NOT pass any safety tests and certificates. All those tests are pure BS.
