Why did I wait so long to get one???
All of the decking around the pool...looks like the day it was put in. Patio furniture...looks brand new. Kid's swing set and play house...looks like I assembled them yesterday. The front walk way...not a drop of bird sh!t to be found. Bring your cars over and I'll give em a good rinse.(not responsible for lost paint!) Man, after all that work I think it is (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer3.gif) time. |

Most extention cords ready made that you buy are 14 or 16 gage wire. For heavy loads, you want 10 to 12 gage. Go to Lowe's or Home Depot. Buy 10 gage multi strand 3 conductor wire, put the male/female plugs on it, and you're done.
Don't go cheap on this, you'll burn up the motor, plus you'll have a cord that will power just about anything. The reason they tell you not to use extention cords is because most come with wire too small to handle the load, the wire will get hot, could start a fire, too much of a voltage drop (low voltage will fry a motor real quick. Good luck,Don |
