I am working on a WLED project, using a esp32 in a 3d printed enclosere. But my dad says that i can't install it because it is not UL listed. He is worried if the house burns down, the insurance company won't insure it due to diy electronics possibly starting a fire. What am i to do, i am not developing a project to sell?

They would still probably find the source of ignition was a homemade device. But I don't know if they pick through the rubble that finely unless they suspect arson.
