Im going to report this to the CPSC!

Somebody is going to get hurt. Making AC power cords from what looks like loose 22ga hookup wire. Altering UL listed power strips for resale. Making AC line plugs out of wood.

It's one thing when some charlatan cable shop buys standard electrical parts at Home Depot or a supply house and builds an AC cord with some nylon flex over it. At least if competently assembled it's more than likely safe. Still not approved though. But this MapleShade stuff is over the top in terms of safety hazards.

Yeah, the CPSC may just laugh it off or they may seek a court injunction to stop sales at the other extreme.

At least I will have tried to prevent a serious accident.
