Review on Yellow Jacket 2884 Heavy Duty Contractor: Unbeatable Performance and Durability by Joshua Beaule

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not for cold weather use, weak forks

There is no doubt that this is a quality product when it comes to durability. The connectors are of high quality, are a snug fit and are backlit on both sides to show that the performance is excellent. However, I hate the plastic cable cover. It's very stiff in cold weather and has a "memory" so it wants to keep its shape. It puckers easily, you can see stress lines when it puckers. Summer in Phoenix would be great but if the weather is under 50 I would turn it down. The jacket lasted less than 3 months on site before the ground pin broke off. It appears to be made out of thin copper bent into a round pin and should be cheaper to build than expected. I would no longer recommend this product.

Pros
  • HEAVY DUTY 12 gauge, 3 pin, 50ft extension
Cons
  • Plenty
