Popular Post The Computer Audiophile Posted August 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2019 Just thought I'd pass this along to everyone. I needed a heavy gauge extension cord for my air conditioner, which says don't use an extension cord. I also needed the cord to be 15 feet long, and I needed it to be white. I searched high and low on Amazon and couldn't find anything. I finally found a company called Bad Ass Extension Cords. These guys had this 12AWG, 15', white and very flexible cable. And, I was able to put Audiophile Style on it :~) jabbr, crenca and AnotherSpin 1 2 Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

ShawnC Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 With that name on it, I’m sure it’s lowered the noise floor caused by the air conditioner 😁. You know there’s a lot more like that coming. Interesting company, it would be helpful to label all my X-Mass light extension cords.

fas42 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I had something like that happen over a decade ago - bought an electric, very heavy duty, mulching shredder, which clearly stated, do not use long extension cords with this. And it was understandable why - if the machine choked on too heavy a load the current draw went through the roof, and would trigger the circuit breaker, back at the house; a poor extension cord would exacerbate the voltage drop, and make the machine perform even worse. Trouble was, the spot where I wanted to shred was far from the house, and it was impossible to buy an extension cord with a very high current rating - meaning lots of copper in it, to reduce the resistance per length. Ended up locating the one electrical wholesaler in the area that had a roll of flexible, high amperage cable - and made up an extension cord ... and that worked fine. Link to comment
