Great quality Blue Ox electric tow reel cables

Purchased for my new RV towing kit. Plugged in, tested, works great. Blue Ox has manufactured excellent quality twisted pair electrical cables. I had a Blue Ox coiled cord on my old camper for 10 years and it worked the whole time! Highly recommended!

Pros
  • Extends from one to two meters
Cons
  • None

Works but could be improved.

The cable is great and doesn't need improvement but the two ports don't have a bracket so I had to improvise and they could also be a bit heavier. There are no instructions, but I think they think you should know what you're doing if you want to use it. If you need to replace either end of the cable, the connectors aren't standard 4-pin, or at least won't work with the regular 4-pin ones I got from Ace for another project. I need to see if the blue bull sells it to you. But nothing in life is…

Pros
  • Silicone encased
Cons
  • Hard to say

May be defective but works great

This saves a lot of time when connecting the tractor. However, when first plugged in, none of the lights worked. They all worked with our previous system. After opening the terminals of this connector, the husband found that 2 wires were unconnected and were dangling. Maybe someone at the factory is unhappy or the machine was miscalibrated on the assembly line? Replaced and the light worked. So if your headlights aren't working, it may not be because of how you wired the RV and towed vehicle…

Pros
  • Features Reversing clutches
Cons
  • There are defects
