I have owned and own several Woods "Yellow Jacket" extension cords. I purchased this one to replace a stolen one. They're popular with thieves too! Its well-constructed plug and socket separate it from the look-alike cords. The Woods cord is well worth the extra money. Also, it doesn't get stiff in cold weather. If you are using this for a weed whacker or leaf blower only, you can get by with the Woods 12/3 cord for about half the price. If you are running an air compressor or anything that has a high current requirement, a 100' 12/3 cord just isn't enough - get this one.

This review is from: Yellow Jacket 2805 10/3 Heavy-Duty 15-Amp SJTW Contractor Extension Cord with Lighted End, 50-Feet (Tools & Home Improvement)

I am a carpenter by trade but I also have a home shop. I got an old Rockwell contactor saw for free and set it in my garage (which is 30 ft from the house). Unfortunatly the garage was originally wired on common house wire to one 15 amp breaker. So 15 amp saw, 14 gauge wire, under load...you do the math. It was either redoing the entire wiring setup in the garage or find a cheap simple solution. I found a cheap simple solution, this cord, I could run it 40 ft to a 20 amp circut in the kitchen, to the garage and my saw works like a dream. That was what I BOUGHT IT FOR. I took it on site a few times now everybody wants to use it. It's better than anything my employer owns, it's the first thing my co-workers mention on monday, "hey can you run you're cord up to the second floor I need to run the table saw" They snicker at how much I paid for it but the use and envy is proof enough. Not only would I buy it again I need to buy another to keep it at home!

Aloha,generaly speeking the retailers in Hawaii will only stock items that are of the average grade.I find that from time to time that even after the high cost of shipping that it is worth shelling-out the extra bucks for a Top of the Line,and this power cord is proof of that theory. Warning my building contractor keeps trying to use my cord now so better that you buy two!
