Is this a three-prong or two-prong?

My latest charger is a 2 prong to plug into the wall. Unless you mean the part from the chord to the charger

This is a three prong; however, my experience is that it gets exceptionally warm. I bought this as a replacement to my original cord that one of my animals chomped on the core. However I managed to fix it prior to getting this cord. When comparing the two cords, I found that the new cord gets much warmer than my original charging cord. I did keep the new cord, but only as a back up, I'm using the old/original cord. I would suggest trying to get a replacement cord from Dell, yes it will cost more but it may prove to be a better investment.

Hi John, The item I received was a 3-Prong. I did not check for this when I ordered as I would have like to get a 2-Prong. I agree with Department of Pediatrics, UMC from the replies below that an OEM device is the best investment. I am in Technology and the 3rd party companies devices do not last as long as OEM and the OEM stuff does seem to run cooler. NOTE: Electronics create heat and next to H2o, heat is thine enemy. I liked the price of my FREE Dell Insiron 1720 with 4GB Ram (Maxed) 500 GB SATA III, so I gave it to my 13 yr old son, but he really doesn't use it much since I built him a Gaming Rig. Hope this helps.Have a great day friend, Mike. :^) Hi John, The item I received was a 3-Prong. I did not check for this when I ordered as I would have like to get a 2-Prong.

3-pronged, it is. Be careful if you're using an adapter, though since not all of them are compatible.

I think it's the two prong cause i thought it was three and ended up not to be.

If I remember right it is a 3 prong. I don't recomend buying this heater because the wire got very hot and it melted 2 plugs.

No, it is two prong (two cylindrical holes for the female end, don't know how best to describe it). I have an electrical wok at home that uses the three prong you are talking about. This is not it.

It is three prongs. It works so well and is so small, I bought an additional one for travel.

3 prong but you can use a 3 prong to 2 prong adapter with it, they only cost a couple of bucks to get. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=3+prong+to+2+prong+adapter

Both ends are 3-prong plugs. A 2-prong could be plugged into it but need a 3-prong wall connect.

It is 3 prong where it goes into the wall. The picture is bad, you are right. It's a very sturdy plug but only good if you don't need to actually adapt the outlet to take 3 prongs instead of 2.

No. It is three-pronged. Which means it is a grounded plug. The third prong is for safety If you use it with an adapter, it will disable the. circuit protection and safety feature if an electrical surge comes through.

It's a short plug, sort of. And it has three prongs. Does that answer your question??

The plug that I received had a three-pronged plug (for the plug that goes into the wall). So it had the grounding prong, if that's what you're asking about.

3 Pronged ((fyi the 3rd is used for grounding & not safe to remove!!). Also has its own circuit reset,neat!,Keep it clean.

It is a two prong ground fault plug which works great since it has kicked out twice since I have had it.

I recieved three prong. I ordered it bc i wanted a two prong. False advertising .

It has both three-pronged input and plugs to go into the wall socket, and my rudimentary understanding of current Code standards is that the third prong is the grounding plug, but "fully grounded" is a function of how well your wall socket is grounded -- in other words, if you plug a three-pronged plug into a three-pronged wall socket, but the wall socket is not properly grounded, whatever device you have plugged in is not "fully grounded".

You would be better off the changing the two(2)prong outlet for a three(3)prong.for ground protection.And for a two or three dollars investment,you will be safe
