Professor Shark posted:Also just lol if you don't make your own extension cables for things like generators Did you make a male-male backfeed/suicide cord? But seriously you're not supposed to use Romex as an extension cord. It's made of solid copper wires (like a coat hanger) that shouldn't be bent or flexed. Flexible cable has wires made out of a ton of little small wires so they can safely be bent and flexed.

thathonkey posted:have you ever had the need for an extension cable? like the heavy duty orange kind maybe? sometimes the plug that comes on appliances and whatnot is just too drat short forcing me out to the store to buy an extension cable. but it works. they work. i don't know how but they do it ... some kind of really advanced chemistry / magic going on inside those things i guess. Good to tie people up with OP

I buy like way too many extension cables, adapters, couplers, all that poo poo. I have a whole box of poo poo to plug up different audio/video signals to each other. And a bunch of poo poo for rechargeable batteries and stuff. Gear shopping is cool.

I recently moved and noticed my giant closet blocked 2 electrical outlets. Put an extension cord with like 3 outputs in there and now I have one extra outlet. But here's the thing: I don't need them at all. I just cleverly used the extension cord because I can
