PSNet,
Altho many good points have been made, UL (the 800 lb gorilla in all
of this) has an established position in the component business.
Having worked with many component mfgrs over the years, this is not
lost on these mfgrs (incuding their marketing folks). Component mfgrs have
no control over who takes their products to which lab so must be prepared
for it all.
So, in spite of all the grumbling, component mfgrs will continue to
use UL for the foreseeable future. That's easy for me, I've worked with UL
for a long time.
