Hmmm, looks interesting but I wouldn't put much faith in it actually protecting you if subjected to flood or fire. The 1/2 hour fire rating is minimal and it doesn't claim to be in compliance with UL fire ratings. The manufacturer claims they tested to UL, but they don't claim they conform. Two different things.

My 2 cents.
