I have 2 12 gauge ext. cords. They are the best I have. I use normal tools with them. Iam just wondering, should I use a 10 gauge cord especially when I use my hd77? Its an older model that is 13 amps. What do you guys use?:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Amen to that. I have a 100 footer 10 gauge. It's a piece of work just to roll it upHave you used a 10 gauge cord before? They aren't exactly light to tug around....
I have 2 100' 10 guage. I use 10 gauge from my generator to my guttering machine. My compressors are always run on 10 gauge. Saws and stuff 12 gauge is plenty. If over 100', my first 100' is 10 gauge. I use a "cord pro" to roll up the 10 gauges, but still heavy. Thought about putting it on a round/spinning/hose reel thing, but havent yet. I use them for my power washer hose and garden hose on the pw trailer. Works great.I have 2 12 gauge ext. cords. They are the best I have. I use normal tools with them.

12 gauge at 50' will run anything you needI don't use more than 12ga and 50FT most of the time.
