Recommendations needed for 110v extension cord for outdoor use to run off truck (can’t find existing thread)

[Moleculefinder]

Do you have an extension cord you like and use for outdoor purposes? Need something longer than 30’ and can’t find references or threads endorsing any. I realize “any” extension cord might work, but have to support an event soon and don’t have time to test and return multiple.

I use a husky (Home Depot) 12/3 100', the only time it's failed me in 15 years was when it didn't get out the way of my lawnmower. Even then I replaced the outlet with a waterproof plug and now I have a 98' extension cord.

I have a couple of these, typical outdoor extension cord. I like that it has an led that shows at a glance if the cord is hot or not. Check your load specs, this cord is rated for 13A.

I have two 50-foot Southwire Yellow Jacket 10/3 20A outdoor extension cords. They work fantastically with the 20A outlets in the truck.

A note you may not need but may be useful for someone else: Don’t leave a long extension cord rolled up in any way if you’re going to be using it for any length of time. It will suffer heat damage.
