What kind of extension cords do LV owners use?

[ivonna]

What a wonderful new thread!!! I can't tell you how much I love my belkin extension cord! It has 12 plugs and - just like my Speedy B - it gives me sooo many options! lmao

Thanks for this fabuleux!

WOW! Belkins are the real cream of the crop. You are SO lucky! Congrats!

Believe it or not, no. I do store her away with my other extension cords in a plastic container in the basement when not in use though!

Be careful it might crack if you store it in the box!

Doesn't the humidity concern you? You don't want your cords developing black spots! They need to breathe.....

Hmmm…. thanks for the tip! I had not thought of that… perhaps only dust bags next time??

Just look at the patina on this baby!

I just love your cord! The patina is amazing!

You know I used my yesterday by the beach and the cord melted all over my beach towel. Think it was the humidity.
Do you think I can get store credit?

This is why I love tPF …. so much helpful advice!
Really, MXMM…. you need to get at least one extension cord ASAP… yes, they require some maintenance but are SO worth it!! If cared for properly, they can last for years!

Credit?! Girl, no! Demand a new one! Stand firm. They should definitely stand behind their products no matter how you abuse it! You need to be happy! After all that cord brought you so much joy and good times, it has sentimental value!

Mine is a vintage Noma, the wind-up one and it's Made In Canada!!! (unheard of[emoji15]) Can it possibly a fake? [emoji23]View attachment 3319420

No red flags. The font looks good, but I would need to see a clear head on picture of the plug.

almost peed my pants laughing so hard on that one..

I'm "shocked" at how many extension cords some of you have! How do you afford it?

Well, that's it...tomorrow I'm on a mission. I'm going to get a TRUE extension cord, not just a surge protector (what was I thinking??). I don't care if it takes all day or driving around for hours. I'll find the perfect one but....then it has to stay in the trunk till my DH is away. He goes crazy if I spend too much on extension cords.
