Is there a special extension cord that should be used with this?

No, it is a fairly low wattage device (250 watts; for comparison, a common home space heater can consumer 1000-1500 watts), so any decent grounded extension cord should be fine.

Any extension cord should work but i would suggest a heavy duty outdoor cord.

You could with a special USB cable cord. I and the owner haven't test it out so proceed with caution.

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

There is a short power cord that must be connected to an extension cord, or the other option is to have an electrician wire it to a power source.

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

I am using an extension cord designed for out door use. It is safe and works just fine. Just make sure that you seal the plug-in with tape or some other material to prevent water from getting into the plug-in.

You'll have to have an appropriate extension cord, that is not included in the purchase of this item. Do not use in home type of extension cords. This is a good blower with variable speeds.

Sorry, don't know about those things. Manual says if you need to use an extension cord that it must be at least 10 amps and 120 volts. I hope that helps.

You can use an extension cord but it needs to be the proper size. I think the book gives the specs. If not, they can be found on the minnkota website. I'm think my extension cord is 12 gauge 3 wire grounded because I wanted a 100 foot cord. A shorter extension can be a smaller gauge.

Thank you for your inquiry. This item is able to be used with a heavy duty extension cord. If you need further assistance, please let me know. Thank you.

The cord is quite short and is only meant to provide a point of connection. You'll need an extension cord.

Does not come with an extension cord, you need to purchase your own. there is a specified requirement on what extension cord to use, its printed on the blower, next to the socket.

My first thought would be to contact the manufacturer. If they say you can use a standard power cord, then buy it locally.

I think you could safely use a heavy duty grounded extention cord with it. It has a grounded 3 prong plug. I leave mine plugged in continuously to an outside grounded outlet. I assume that it's the typical "cover your butt" safety warning that says not to use an extention cord.

O have an outlet box close to where I use the heater so I don't use any extension cord, however, you should be able to use a outdoor extension cord. I would also use a cord lock cover to protect the connection from rain or snow.

There is no cord, just a pigtail about 16" long or so. You need a long extension cord to use it.
