Our verdict

A fifty foot orange outdoor extension cord for light-duty power, with a water resistant vinyl jacket and a molded plug. The listing is inconsistent about prong and outlet counts, so check the plug style.

Overview

Not a heavy-duty power cord, this is a sixteen gauge vinyl extension cord for landscaping tools and appliances. A molded plug and a flexible SJTW jacket protect the cord, and the orange color makes it visible on a lawn.

The length reaches across a yard, and the jacket is rated for outdoor use in damp conditions. The limit is gauge, since sixteen gauge suits light tools but not high-draw equipment over a long run.

Who it's for

Yard work, holiday lighting and light appliances outdoors. Contractors and heavy tool users need a thicker gauge, and anyone needing a grounded three-prong cord should check the plug.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Water resistant jacket
  • High visibility orange
Cons
  • Light gauge for high-draw tools
  • Prong count unclear in listing
  • Outlet count unclear

Performance notes

A thinner conductor loses more voltage over distance, so tools that draw heavy current run weaker at the end of a long cord. The SJTW jacket resists moisture and cold. Heavy loads can heat a light gauge cord.
