After a quick Google search they are not claiming or have a UL listing. Looks like a good idea, get some testing done.

Does that lifetime guarantee your home?
And I know that as code officials we have no say as to what is used in buildings after occupancy. Just hate to see what looks like a cool product, not be safe. Only do what I can do.

No, money back guarantee minus p&h. Plus, they will probably tell you that the first to malfunction if the free one - which you paid $7.95 postage & handling to get. So, when it burns your house down you will get $10 of you $25.90 back. Plus, your insurance company may pull the old - they admitted their device malfunctioned, so they are responsible for the damage.
Overall, the concept looks like a good one. Too bad they didn't do it right. Also too bad that the average uneducated consumer will buy these by the dozen.

Isn't the magical AFCI supposed to protect us from products like this? 
I bet half the cube taps, extension cords and lamps sold in the US are not listed. A lot of time you see a U/L tag but if you read it, the tag is for the cord set, not the lamp.
