Funnily enough AmazonBasics is probably the safest set of products on Amazon, as nobody but Amazon is allowed to sell those products. A brand name item might be a fake, but AmazonBasics is always the original (potentially crappy anyway) product.

EV Chargers then. Search for Level 2 EV Charger. The number of generic chineesium chargers available that will move 40amps of power in your garage without UL or ETL certification is mind-boggingly high.

I've seen some advertise "UL Safety Report", which I assume is weasel-words for "We failed UL certification so we can't actually say the magic phrase 'UL Listed'".

I've seen some claim to be UL Listed without being able to find them on the UL site.

Sure, it's nice to buy a cheap chinesium drone, but something moving 40amps of power and heat in your home without accepted safety checks? That feels like something that should have some liability on the merchant's side when it burns something down.

Sounds like you're talking about third party EV chargers. What does this have to do with amazon basics? Or are you pulling a motte and bailey, going from "amazon basics is going to burn down your house" to "third party EV chargers are going to burn down your house"?

I went down a small rabbit hole of Amazon electrical products once. You truly are better off at the big orange or blue hardware store for anything electric. Might cost a few bucks more but you don't have multiple suppliers referencing the same fake certificates and skimping on wire gauge to save a few cents.
