Amazon is showing a COLEMAN OUTDOOR EXTENSION CABLE 10 AMP that is frequently "bought together" with this mower. Correct that this is not enough amps?

yes, for me is enough. because I have a small backyard. this one is easy for me to handle!

No, the 10amp would be too light use for this equipment and you will likely destroy the motor/have issues. You require at least 12 Amp rating (i.e. '16 Gauge' for 50ft length, or '14 gauge' for 100ft cable; that's what the owner's manual recommended. Note the longer the cable length you need, the higher rating you will need). I had electrical issues with this model of mower anyway, so I returned it and purchased another brand - I also went for a higher rating cable i.e. 16 gauge (I have a 100ft cable) to be safe and because that's what that manufacturer recommended for their 12amp mower. Hope this helps, THE LESSON IS.... just be careful not to buy a low rated cord because you want to save money - it will cost you in the end when the mower breaks.Check what the manufacturer recommends on their website.

After researching, I determined that the 10 amp was not optimal and I bought this one: US Wire 65100 12/3 100-Foot SJTW Orange Heavy Duty Extension Cord

I have an older model B&D; 12 amp version of this mower. If you are using a 50 foot or less extension cord I recommend a 14 gauge. This will pass enough amps to keep from burning up your mower motor. If you are using 100 foot cord go with a 12 gauge. I burned up the plug on my 1st 12 amp mower using a 14 gauge 100 foot cord and had to replace the mower because of a power dip. It caused a fire that melted the plug.

It's got to be a good one rated for about 10 amps. I would suggest a 14gage heavy industrial type. I use a heavy 100-foot cord and no problem.

I used 2 x 100 ft. power cords, one I ordered when I bought this tiller: Coleman Cable 02309 16/3 Vinyl Outdoor Extension Cord, Orange, 100-Feet 16-gauge I had had a 12-gauge extension cord already and used both together- no problem.

It does not come with a cord. You need to provide your own extension cord suitable for use with the mower.

Mine came with the BL91015, which is 1.5 amp But it looks like it should fit. I would inquire with Earthwise or look on their website.

Amazon kicked my reply back, probably because it had a web address in it. Check out irrigationdirect.com They have the transformer/power supply. 21.50. Check the internal fuse first.

I have not actually used the coleman cable, but the they should be comparable in specs, the the logsplitter I have only required 12/3 wiring requirements but with the 10/3 you certainly have increased assurance there is no limiting factor in any current drop and have full power at the end of the plug for whatever device you attach.

Go to your local hardware store and get an extension cord appropriate to handle the load - amps.

Andrew,I'm not sure why it says that but I have a cord running to mine from the 15 amp plug of the generator. My generator is a champion 4000 w. I have also just bought one for my in-laws also. It's well made and alot easier than the splice job I had to do during Sandy.Tim

I don't have this model, but I my best guess would be a outdoor rated extension cord.

10 gauge would be good and is more than sufficient to hanlde the current draw of this amplifier. 10 gague is also what the manufacturer recomends for this amplifier.

The key is your extension cord. Be sure you use one that's rated for 15 amps or you are risking burning out the motor.

I am not sure but because I am not at our lake place now but it comes with the correct wiring for the charger and I used a regular extension cord from the charger to a 120 V outlet. Why do you need 10 gauge wire?

I am using a heavy gauge wire( 12 gauge ) It is heavy, but it ill supply sufficient electricity to the mower and the motor will not burn out. There are a few manufacturers listed on the Amazon site. I am personally using the cords manufactured by " US Wire and Cable" BUT that is strictly my preference since I am also using those same cords for my snow blower. Hope this helps

Check out this link to B&D;'s website where they answer the question, "What type of extension cord do you recommend for an electric mower?"http://support.blackanddecker.com/cgi-bin/blackanddecker.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=438

13.5 amps so you will want a 14-gauge extension cord rated for outdoor use.
