Review on GearIT 50-Amp 50-Feet 250-Volt RV Extension Cord | Perfect for RV, Tesla Model 3/S/X/Y | NEMA 14-50P to 14-50R by Roberto Smith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Basically exactly what is described. Green. Difficult. Long. Spiral.

This is a strong line, almost exactly as described. I really have no problem with that. I use it to charge my Tesla Model Y with a 14-50 Tesla adapter and a Tesla charger. In this respect, everything fits together perfectly, the connections of this cable do not come loose and are separated with a strong but light pull. The built-in buttons on the ports are really useful. The cable is green, a unique color among most black cables. I got it thinking it would be trendy and neat. I think it will be indoors. But mine works on the street near the house, and it's bright enough and catches the eye. I probably should have gotten a black cord to be less noticeable. It doesn't really blend in with the grass, if that's the purpose it's lighter. Otherwise it's a nice bright green. The cable is supplied in a spool. It's heavy, thick and durable; not cheap feeling at all. I doubt I could damage the thing if I tried. However, if you want it to go straight ahead in the distance, it retains the spiral and resembles an old-school twisted-pair phone cord. I tried unwinding the spiral toward the ends by changing the twist and made some progress, but it was a difficult line and I ended up making it worse. I doubt this thing will ever be straight. If that were the case, it would probably make collection more difficult. He is fat and heavy. If you store it in a box or indoors, you probably still want it rolled up. I'd say it's difficult to handle in that sense, but 50ft is a long wire even for these things. Maybe in the future I'll consider getting a 30ft black cable and see if I can handle that distance. I'm glad I didn't overdo it and walked 75ft to get a little more!

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
