That's 21 watts over 30 feet = 0.7 watts per foot. For comparison, an EasyHeat Pipe Heating Cable on Amazon is 7 watts per foot (the industry standard), 10 times as much power. 210 watts for a 30 foot cable.This is incredibly low wattage and I certainly wouldn't consider this for a 30 ft pipe run. You would have to spiral wrap this over a 4-6 ft pipe length for it to have any utility and success at all. Use this at your own risk - there's a reason it's $10. The EasyHeat 30' cable is $33 and it actually will heat/protect 30 feet of pipe - you are told not to spiral wrap it because it will produce too much heat per foot.
When we had our kitchen remodel the person said these things were illegal and they don't even sell them anymore. Dafuq was he talking about?

I'll hope that this uses 7 watts per foot for purchasers sake, but these are big oversights that tell me the brand is questionable.
Update: There are some very bad reviews people. I'm unable to attach the photos of the charred house. It's unfortunate to see so many people putting their property at risk. I wouldn't take this product for free.
Amazon Customer - Almost burnt my house down - avoid at all cost
I installed this product correctly, following all of the manufacturers instructions. The cable was not overlapping and was more than 13mm away from any "combustible" surface, which is the wood siding in this instance. Within five hours of installation and use, it caught fire and spread to the exterior of our home. We smelled smoke coming under the laundry room door, and opened the door to find the room, which is on the interior wall of where the cable was installed, completely filled with this smoke. We immediately extinguished the fire, but the product had already done damage to our homes exterior, ruined the plumbing into the wall, and filled our house with toxic smoke from burning plastic and insulation. Avoid this product at all costs. After contacting Amazon and waiting on hold multiple times, they dropped my call twice while "I was being connected to the right customer service team"
Mike - 18 FEET OF DESTRUCTION
This melted my my pvc plumbing and nearly started a fire. When I tried to contact product support, I was told by a robot its past its return window. Had to contact Amazon just to get a return started. I'm out over $200 in destroyed plumbing. This cheap one is dangerous. Bought other brands, no problems.

Keep one on your oil supply line and keep the oil flowing to your burner and keep the heat on.
Can also keep on the bottom of your gutters to hopefully help those from freezing and having complications of ice dams on your roof.
If you don't know about either of these issues, consider yourself lucky.
The watts do seem low for this one and someone else mentioned bad reviews.
