Bottom line: Yes.

It is advertised as being ETL certified, which is an NRTL (like UL) that is run by ITS.
https://www.osha.gov/nationally-r...rogram/its
https://www.osha.gov/nationally-r...rogram/ul/

Many arguments exist about whether UL or ETL is "better," but they are both certified testing laboratories and confirm that a product meets certain standards. (the big difference is that UL actually writes those standards, whereas ETL tends to just use them for testing)

Checking ETL's site, this brand/model is listed in the pictures (Lvetek QF-519F):
https://ramuk.intertekconnect.com...enDocument

Important extract from the above webpage:
"Current taps with class 2 power unit, Model Nos. ...QF-519F..."
"A representative sample of the listed devices have been tested, investigated and found to comply with the requirements of the Standard(s) for Current Taps & Adapters (UL-498A) and are identified with the ETL Listed Mark."

Of course, all of that is assuming that the brand/model listed is genuine (fake products are fake, after all!), but that's always an issue, so YMMV.

The listed rating is 1875W. So, theoretically, you should be able to connect a 1500W heater along with a few other small devices, but take a look a the power consumpion of those devices. Even USB devices (like phones) can draw 50-100W these days.

One thing to note in the listing is that all of the USB ports are limited to 5V only, so no quick charging is supported. From the Amazon listing:
"USB Port Output: DC 5V, Total 4.8A (although this picture shows 4.2A max)
The UCB-C port doesn't support any other devices which need 9~22V charging voltage."

It's just a USB charger. There's no magic circuitry.

Got mine tested - confirmed: piece of junk.
Each USB A provided 1.46A max. Only one, did not test 2 or 3 at the same time.
Type-C provided only 1.46A max also.
I will return it tomorrow. I have plenty of PD chargers at home.will continue to use 6 outlet splitter from Dollar Tree and PD chargers.
Which one did you purchase?

Bought several long time ago. Like. Luv the extra plugs, added Cat4/5 plugs. CAVET - Will not plug into a GFCI outlets. My bathroom and kitchen counter outlet are GFCI.
I have used this on the 'down' side of the bathroom and kitchen GFCI outlets. YMMV . . Caution . . Don't if you do not know what this means. IMHO
Are there any with nite lite that work in gfci?

My outlet has screws on the top and bottom instead of the middle. Anyone know if something like this exists for my use case? I'm in an apartment so I can't go around switching the outlets.

This one is also better rated on fakespot. The posted one is rated D while this other linked one is C. Neither is great.

I have Decora outlets like that throughout the house and use a couple of these adapters anyway. I'm not plugging and unplugging things constantly, so not using the screw hasn't been a problem. If you were going to plug/unplug all the time, these might not be the best idea, but otherwise, you should be fine.

Quick, what's the brand + country of origin + certification on every power strip, surge protector, outlet and USB adapter in your house? What is their max wattage and actual usage (in amps and watts)?

Oh you... don't know that offhand?

Curious how everyone turns into a master electrician worried about burning their house down every time a budget power device gets posted. LEDs start fires! China starts fires! No power delivery!

It's an *$8 power strip* with USB ports for convenience, not to power your entire home and replace 90W Apple chargers.

I bought that one in Feb 2023, and sometime last summer, one of the USB-A ports quit. The rest is doing fine so far, but I'm not happy about losing a port.

Not sure how you tested yours but mine charges my Samsung phone at 10w (2A), Chromebook at 12W (2.4A), and iPad at 5w, per my test with a cable that has proven to be accurate with my other chargers. I am guessing your 1.46A could be a result of the device you used negotiated at DCP protocol which limits to 1.5A.

I will probably return mine though, as I saw someone else posted a link with 6 outlets rather than 5.

Quote from Naramie :
Why do these things block the second outlet or not utilize it at all?
Because typically the top and bottom outlets are ganged together, so you don't need to plug into both.

Also some plugs can be split on the side screw terminals so that top and bottom can be different circuits, and you wouldn't want to plug something into both that would join them back together.
