These are well made at a good price. Easy to repair extension cords with these.

These are quite nice, easy to use and look clean. They are however a little bit cheaply made. But overall they work well, and fixed my extension cords which had failing connections. So I am happy with them. Would buy again.

Just installed the connectors on a 15' flat extension cord with bad ends. The process was routine, make sure you strip the ends just long enough to slide under the tabs and avoid exposed bare wires, tighten the screws then bend the wire back and forth about 3 times and tighten the screw again, repeat 2-3 times on all connections. If you don't do this the braided wire will loosen up on you. I forgot, when you strip the braided wire if you accidentally cut off a few strands, cut it off completely and do it again - yes it does matter when carrying maximum amps. The female connector is polarized so you want to match polarity and ground at both ends of the extension, this is very easy to do with color coded wires, but you may need an ohm meter to be sure with a cable like mine where all three conductors are the same color. I own several outlet testers so before putting a load on the renewed extension cord I plugged it into the wall outlet and plugged in an outlet tester ($6-$8) to the other end and it will show you got it right. One bad, the female end does not hold very tight so if you are going to use it by dragging it all over the place just tie the ends and you will be fine. I have some pictures I hope are found helpful.

Works well

I have no objections. The device is good.

I almost liked the price, but still seemed over priced. The Male Plug works pretty good! The Female Socket assembly has a molding error such that the two pieces do not line up correctly when reassembling. This can be corrected using a sharp tool to remove the offending blibbit. It is not a piece of flash left from molding. It's simply a mistake which should have been corrected long long ago. I tried ordering similar products from other brands, but they all have the exact same error and probably are all made by the same oriental plastic molding company. Other purchasers have indicated that wiring can be difficult and if you're old school and want to wrap the stripped conductor around the screw, they're right! The thickness of the copper conductor uses up the whole screw length with nary a thread left to engage plus its located in a tight area. Inserting the copper conductor along one side of the screw causes the U conductor clamp to tilt badly and seems to result in poor mechanical strength. Also, getting all the fine wire strands of the conductor to stay under the clamp while tightening is another tedious hurdle. My personal solution to control stray wire strands is wire tinning; ie twist the strands, add some flux and tin the wire with 60 / 40 solder to convert the stranded conductor to a solid conductor (which is what most electrical fixtures are designed to accommodate). To eliminate the clamp from tilting, in this particular case, I split the stranded conductor into two halves before tinning so it looked like a two prong fork. Finally, insert the tinned fork under the wire clamp with the screw in the middle and half the wire on each side. Now the clamp will screw down without tilting. If you want to get fancy, bend the tips of the fork 90 degrees like the way a wire crimp terminal is made to add mechanical pull strength. For this price, the job should have been easier, like you stick the stripped end of the wire into a hole and tighten a screw that's at a 90 degree angle to the wire and you're done! Maybe next year!

Perfect for repairing my extension cords

Good product.

I bought a generator extension cord 10 gauge 10 feet for so cheap. They wanted so much money for a 10 gauge 6 feet regular extension cord so I just created my own and I saved $20.
