UL does not Approve, they List or Certify.
'UL Approved' is often used by companies who don't submit to UL for review.
Buyer Beware.

They have
UL Listed
UL Verified
UL Enhanced
UL Certified
But no "UL Approved".

I bought a Bosch about 20 years ago, was pricey but it has served me very well through the years, just like an old Timex watch: takes a licking but keeps on ticking!

Can't seem to see a brand name either. Thanks

Yes. I got it a few years back, introductory price and it came with the box of shrink tubing, then I bought an extra box.
Nice well made gun.

I pulled the trigger. Gun came in yesterday. It's light, I like the controls, only the metal part at the end gets hot. No other parts of the gun got hot.
I'm happy I got it.
