Cheapest replacement connector I found online but has a few issues

First off, this is a **NOT** 2 PIN POLARIZED connector. You can rotate the plug 180 degrees and it will still stay plugged in. Second, fitting the block into a standard power cord is non-trivial. You will need to remove a small screw and nut, both of which are non-captive. The wires then need to be stripped and secured with small screws. Finally, the top and bottom halves need to be pressed VERY tightly together for the short bolt to reach the nut, which is easiest if you have 3 or 4 hands to…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Only for rare use with low current!

I find the rotatable connector practical. The fork's ability to pivot to a "straight" position makes engagement/disengagement easier. 90 degree left/right swivel capability allows wall anchors to be installed in tight spaces behind furniture or beds. That's the good part. The problem with these plugs is that they are very light - although they are rated for 10A (not 15A as the description says) I wouldn't want to connect these plugs to a device that draws even half the current rating of the…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Useless functions

Attention buyers! - These plugs are not what is advertised. The specs on Revain.com say it's a polarized plug, but it's not. It's actually a two-pronged, non-polarized plug. Both pins on the connector are 0.235" wide and 0.05" thick (NEMA standard states the blades are 0.06" thick). The plug is marked with a rating of 10A. The internal connections of the connector that connect the wiring to the meter are compression fittings with a very loose fit which, due to the resistance generated by this…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Good but not great
