Yellow Jacket 2886 14/3 Heavy-Duty 15-Amp SJTW Contractor Extension Cord with Lighted End, 25-Feet

by Yellow Jacket

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Don't confuse Yellow Jacket cords with normal types of "yellow" extension cords. Yellow Jacket uses an exclusive compound material that is more flexible and abrasion resistant at any temperature than standard vinyl compounds. The Yellow Jacket Compound is three times as abrasion resistant as standard vinyl, making these cords the toughest on the jobsite. It also has a Powerlite indicator. This lighted plug(powerlite) glows when the cord has power, so you're never confused if someone on the worksite has unplugged it, or why your tool isn't working. Remember, the solid molded ends stand up to heat, cold, and rough use. We recommend this cord for jobsites, events, concerts, parties, outdoor work, and more.

This is a high quality extension cord. It is flexible and doesn't tangle up. I use it with a snow thrower and it stays flexible no matter how cold it gets.

This review is from: Yellow Jacket 2887 14/3 Heavy-Duty 15-Amp SJTW Contractor Extension Cord with Lighted Ends, 50-Feet (Tools & Home Improvement)

My son has run over 2 cords in two years with our electric lawn mower, so I decided to get a Yellow Jacket cord because it's very visible.

The light on the plug is nice so if there is a problem powering your outdoor equipment, you'll be able to troubleshoot faster by knowing if you've blown a fuse or if the electric equipment is malfunctioning.

Yellow Jacket touts this cord as flexible, and I have to agree. That was one of the first things I noticed right out of the package. I like the fact that they say this cord is three times more abrasion resistant than standard vinyl cords.

Because of it's abrasion resistance, lighted power indicator, flexibility, and bright yellow color, we'll be buying more yellow jacket cords in the future.

This is a really nice outdoor extension cord. Heavy duty. Good quality. Flexible. I liked the lighted outlet that shows you have power. I used the cord with my electric tiller. I did not have any issues. The bright yellow color stands out in the grass, so there is less of a chance of running it over. Highly recommended.
