C2G 3FT Premium Universal Extension Cord - Power Extension Cord for TV, Computer, Monitor, Appliance & More (03114)

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.

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.

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).

1 ft, all I needed, black and discreet, fine!

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 LENGTHWhile 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.CAPACITYStated 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.CONSTRUCTIONIt 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.APPLICATIONI 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.SUMMARYIt does what it is intended to do and it is priced realistically.

I don't know why a manufacturer would make a coffee maker with a cord too short to reach a wall outlet, but go figure. This was perfect to close the gap without having a wad of extra cord left over. Very economical, too.

Needed a short extension cord and this one works great.
