Or someone stuck a UL sticker on it. It happens.

Hi Foxy,
Nope, the sticker is definitely authentic. It has the UL listed emblem as
well as the CSA. But under a closer look Guess What? In FINE print it reads
"For use with Olympus Electronic Flash T20 only" VERY INTERESTING !! I
sounds like Oly did have a problem with it and the T32. Maybe that is why
John H. saw an Adapter 3 which had caught on FIRE. WOW!!!
Question; Would keeping these adapters plugged into one of those Surge
Protectors help if it did over heat?
