Do I need extension wire for the corded one? How long is the built-in cord of this one?

The attached cord is only long enough to reach from the engine to the handle. You must attach the unit to an extension cord.

the plug from the mower is about 18 inches, so you will need a 50 foot extension cord.

The cord is about 1 foot long! You definitely need an extension cord, 12 amp,

the "built in cord" is less than a foot long...yes you need an extension cord.

Yes, you need an extension cord for this model. There is just a very short cord meant to attach to an extension cord. The user manual (page 4) gives specifications for the type of cord you need, and it varies, based on the length of the cord you need. I suggest waiting until you've examined these specifications before purchasing the extension cord. A correct cord for my purposes was 100 ft in length and cost ~$60 at Home Depot. In my search of corded mowers, there was one that cost significantly more that included a 100 ft cord, but I think most models I looked at required an extension cord.

The cord is not too long about 4 to 5 feet. If you decide to use an extension cord make sure it is a heavy duty cord with at least 12 guage wire.

More than likely you will need an extension cord. How close you are to an outlet will determine its length. An all weather one is preferable.

The unit comes with 3-4+ feet of wire. I would NOT extend it due to the fact that the connection may not be good and false readings may be given. just my 2 cents

I just received mine. The long cord is only 4' long. Way too short for most garages or shops where the next outlet is more than 4' away. Now I have to use an extension cord.

The cord is about a foot long. You will need a heavy duty extension cord. The unit is powerful and does a great job.

I hard wired a 14 GA. 3 wire 10'-12' extension cord that I removed the female end from. Works traffic. Shorter the better.

The wires are about 6 feet long and have RCA cable ends. RCA cord extensions would give you more length

Yes to both questions, and works great... Just needs a slightly longer plug wire.

I gave that to a friend to use and told her I might borrow. I called her and she has no idea how long but says she does use an extension cord when she uses. Didn't offer to go measure :))

The cord is 80in long. Sorry I am not sure about whether or not you can use an extension cord.

Should be long enough. Was for mine. Only thing I would recommend is getting some shielding for the cord as it is like a lamp cord.

Cord length is standard -5 or 6 ft. Yes you can use an extension cord with it.

I took a photo: &lt;http://imgur.com/G48f1C4&gt; I bought the 1' version. You can see that the entire thing is just over 12" long. Around 8.5" of that is cord.

It is a bit short but actually its always been long enough for me. It wouldn't be easy & would no doubt look messy to add an extra length of wire to it. You would be better off getting an extension cable if you needed it to be longer (or the wireless version)

It's wired. The cord does seem to have plenty of length tho'. Didn't have to 'stretch' with it.

Not sure.Mine is corded, and I didn't realize it was described as being battery operated.
