What extension cord needs to be used? What outlet is required?

120 volt , 12/3 or you might get away with 14/3 . YOU ALWAYS WANT to use a grounded plug and shorter is better

The extension cord should be rated for outdoors SJTW and 14 gauge or higher. For lengths of 100 ft I would use 12 gauge. The extension cord will plug into a standard 15 amp, 110 volt recepticle.

Electrical. The 3 pronged cord attached is about a foot 1/2 so you will need an extension cord.

You need it nest an existing outlet. The cord is about 3 feet at the bottom

If you live in the USA, then a standard outlet should work. Do not use any extension cords. The popper will use about the same power that a 4 slice toaster uses or 8.4 one hundred watt light bulbs on at the same time. Hope this helps...

About 4ft, I believe, but I have not measured it because it is long enough for most setups. Do not use an extension cord as the unit draws too many amps and the cords/plugs get too hot. I had to create a cord using 12/3 heavy electric cable with a heavy plug on one end and an outlet box on the other end for safe operation. I bought the cable and ends at the local home improvement store. The cable is sold by the foot, so you can make the length you need.

The cord is probably about 2 feet or so. Yes, you can add an extension. It fits a regular electrical wall socket. I can use it on my desk and leave it plugged in to the wall with no problem.

All devices should be plugged in directly into surge protector. Never use a extension cord between outlet and protector, for best protection of your electronics read instructions. Happy Tripp-in

It is preferable to plug the unit directly in to an outlet, but plugging it in to an extension cord should work OK. Do NOT however plug the unit into a power strip or the results will be unsatisfactory.

This unit needs to be plugged to a 120v outlet. I ran an extension cord from the outlet to the unit.

If you don't have a power outlet, Yes.. You would need to run an extension cord... however, by calling a licensed electrician, install an outlet, it would be ideal... that's what I did... cost me $50. bucks...

I cut mine and wired into a switch. You will get tired of pulling cord out of outlet. One option is an extension cord with foot pedal actuator. 3ft if I remember correctly.

This unit is operated with an extension cord. You would need to supply the cord yourself.

I do use a short extension cord. I don't have it anymore. It's not very durable. It started coming apart.

You know, I'm not sure. I have thrown the box away and do not recall the instructions stating NOT to use and extension cord with the device, but I know it did state not to plug the outlet INTO an extension cord (I hope that makes sense!). I actually have an extension cord (three prong) and a plug strip plugged into the outlet and so far, no issues. I hope this helps! Feel free to respond if you need additional information. Take care!

No problem. I'm not sure, but I seem to remember it may require a 3 prong extension cord.

An extension cord is necessary because the cord is so short. The product only lasted for about a month, and then it ceased to operate. I purchased another product from another source. and it is still operating!

Plugging in is an option. The cord is actually pretty long, although I can't recall how many feet. It was more than I needed, so I left a lot of it bundled.
