Oh, yeah.  That's the first one I bought from them at the summer sale, and I did complain right away.   Those are ideal for powering the KX3 and I carry one in the Pelican with my bare KX3.  The USB port is used to power a plug-in LED lamp.

I do wish more people making those power supplies could read English.  I'd send them a copy of Parts 15 and 17 to read.

It's going to take a concerted effort for all 170,000 of us U.S. hams to convince these people.  

I even had to hand a cheap transistor radio to a rep from our electrical service company to he could listen to the LED power supply he planned to install.  He was surprised.  I was appalled.
