C2G Legrand Universal Power Cord, Computer Extension Cord with 18 AWG Power Cord, 6 Foot Computer Power Cable, Black, 1 Count, C2G 03115

I recently purchased the C2G power cord as a replacement for the one I lost for my computer, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Firstly, the price was fantastic, making it a budget-friendly option without compromising on quality. The length of the power cord was perfect for my needs, providing ample reach from the power outlet to my computer setup. It eliminated the inconvenience of having to rearrange my workspace or use extension cords. In terms of performance, the C2G power cord delivered as expected. It provided a stable power supply to my computer without any noticeable issues. The build quality appears to be sturdy, with well-insulated wiring that feels durable. What impressed me most was the straightforward plug-and-play nature of the cord. It was easy to install, saving me time and effort. The snug fit ensured a secure connection, eliminating any worries of loose connections or power interruptions. Overall, I highly recommend the C2G power cord. Its affordability, ideal length, and reliable performance make it an excellent choice for replacing lost or damaged cords. It's a no-fuss solution that gets the job done without breaking the bank.

Modern wall plugs for electronics are a hassle, they never fit neatly onto your surge protectors and uninterruptable power supplies. This is quite frankly a normal thing, and one I grew accustomed to. Wasted power outlets was something I'd just learned to live with. However, when I moved into my own place, I realized I wanted to game and get stuff done at the same time... and to do that I needed to have both of my monitors, my steam deck's dock, my desktop gaming PC, my router, AND my modem plugged in seperately to my Uninterruptable Power Supply at the same time to avoid possible loss of work and game progress at the same time. So, I did some research into solutions. Grounded extension cords are hard to find, and long ones are prone to tripping people, getting damaged when stepped or tripped on, and eventual malfunctions from said damage. I needed a set of one footers that fit neatly behind my PC and were only useful for the sole purpose of maximizing the usefulness of every outlet on my UPS. These fit the bill very nicely, Now my modem and router, PC, monitors, and steam deck's dock can remain powered even when there is an outage, which works very well considering my ISP seems to use some kind of backup power solution themselves. If the power goes out, I can notify my teammates OR save my single player session, quit the game, save my documents, and not have to worry about lost data, progress, or punishment from overzealous anti-bad-sportsmanship scripts and tools in multiplayer games (or in the case of survival games or elite dangerous, loss of valuable stuff due to not getting to shelter before disconnecting).

Not much to get excited about with an extension cord. But there are still some poor ones out there, as well as some that are just too damn expensive. What I needed was one that looks exactly like this that would fit my leaf blower...The plug on the blower is shielded and I cannot use one of those extension cords with multiple outlets at the end. And I also needed around 15 feet to do my deck with it which is what I use my blower for most of the time. This cord was the perfect size, fit, and above all, price. For a 15 footer its a real bargain for the price. And there is nothing cheap about this cord at all. I understand from some of the other reviews that the amp rating on this is lower than some would want or need. But since I am only using this for a few minutes at a time that is of no concern for me. If you need a cord like this for something that will be plugged in all the time and draws a lot of juice, by all means make sure its safe enough for you. As for my need, its perfect, solid, and the price on it can't be beat...Highly recommended...

Wanted this so I can fit larger plugs on a power strip. This works perfect and is a decent price. Very good quality and thickness.

They describe this as an outlet saver, I’m not sure what they mean by that but you still have to plug it in to an outlet, thereby using that outlet, so in reality it’s not saving an outlet. More accurately it is a grounded extension cord, available in seven different lengths from one foot to 25 feet in length. I bought the one foot size and that is what I am discussing here. THE REAL LENGTH While it didn’t make a lot of difference to me, for some mission critical applications it might so let’s define how long it really is. The one foot model adds exactly twelve inches of distance between the face of the outlet and the face of the cord’s receptacle, however the total length of the product is about one inch longer which includes the grounded power pins on the plug end. The pic I included illustrates this. CAPACITY Stated load capacity is a maximum of 1250 watts 10 amps 110 volts. Despite what it looks like and how it feels that is not as much as you may be expecting. Will it handle more – I don’t know, that rating is what the manufacturer states. CONSTRUCTION It does feel relatively rugged and heavy duty. What’s important these days are the contacts. At the plug end the pins are stamped metal, the ground pin is stamped and formed, it is not solid metal. At the receptacle end there are full brass inserts that contact the full surface both sides of the blades and ground pin. This is worth knowing because many of the power cord products coming from China these days only use a small point of contact rather than full surface. APPLICATION I see my application as twofold – the reason I bought it is to add just a very short amount of length to a small appliance that has a cord that doesn’t quite reach the outlet. I was tired of moving the device each time I wanted to use it and this adds the very small amount of length I needed. For the same device it is one that I unplug between uses. It is far easier for me to unplug it from this extension cord than to reach the inverted power strip I have installed over my food prep area. SUMMARY It does what it is intended to do and it is priced realistically.

Buen producto, cumple bien su función. Es práctico para conectar cualquier dispositivo y ahorrar espacio en los enchufes. Se siente resistente y el tamaño es adecuado para uso en casa u oficina. Recomendado si buscas algo sencillo y funcional.

Needed a short extension cord and this one works great.

They REALLY should list the current and power rating in the device description - unfortunately, they only list the wire gauge. My cord as arrived clearly states 10 Amps, 125 Volts, 1,250 Watt maximum on it. That said, it is a great extension cord to use with small power tools but you really have to know what you are doing and how NOT to start an electrical fire. It is advertised as 18 AWG wire gauge where a normal 15 Amp extension cord is most likely 14 AWG. 18 AWG is MUCH smaller wire than 14 AWG. This means it can't handle a 15 Amp load without burning up. BUT - if you have a small appliance under 10 Amps ( like my hand held vacuum or power drill ) it results in a MUCH lighter and compact cable to be dragging around and storing. My 25 foot 18 AWG has a ship weight listed as 1.1 pounds ( 0.5kg ) where a lot of equivalent 14 AWG 15 Amp cords are 3 lbs, or about 3x heavier. As an experiment - I used this website http://www.powerstream.com/Wire_Size.htm to determine that plugging my 15 Amp 7" circular saw into this cable would be a REALLY BAD IDEA - the voltage drop was 10 Volts x 15 Amps = 150 Watts of heat dissipating in the cord. Running continuously, this would most likely melt the cable insulation and start a fire. For a good example of voltage drop turning into heat in a cord, run a upright corded vacuum cleaner and hold the power cord after it has been running for a few minutes - it should be quite warm.
