This is the one to get.
This is a solidly built, good quality 12 ga. wire 12v extension. It is the only one I found with 12vga. wire, which conducts more current with less voltage loss (others are either 14, or 16 ga., i.e., smaller wire). I took apart the male connector and was impressed with it. The wire was not crimped, it was solidly soldered in place. It also has an in line 20A fuse. It is meant to work and protect itself. I have 50 years of experience in electrical power applications. Unless you don't need anything near that current capacity or quality, this is the one to get. It is 10 feet long, but built to carry up to 20 amps across that length.

Very Heavy Duty, High Quality
Thanks to all who left reviews here! As is often the case on Amazon, there were a lot of choices and options for a product like this, and I appreciate all who took time to share their experience.I'd say this is possibly more cord than I needed, but I'd much rather err on the side of it being too sturdy, than too flimsy, and, definitely, there is nothing at all flimsy about this cord. It is a seriously beefy cord, which makes it a little on the stiff side and, at twelve feet, it's more length than I thought I'd need, but, as I say, I would prefer to have more of what I need, than less.As it turns out, although I purchased it for some tuning electronics I use in my car and really didn't need more than maybe five feet of extension (so I just spool up the extra and tie it, to keep out of my way), that extra length came in quite handy when I used the cord to power up my Fix A Flat kit, on my brother's car, when he got a flat and didn't have his spare tire. The cord on the Fix A Flat compressor ran a bit short, so this was perfect to give plenty of length for filling up the back tire.While there are a lot of options on here, for such cords, this is one where the difference is made in the quality. I've looked at some cords at various auto stores, and haven't liked the flimsy look of them, which was why I hadn't bought one until now, and I'm glad this is the one I picked.I've used the cord many times now, and even have a mount location for it, for when I am using my track computer (adding extra length so the cord to the computer is not strained, in connecting to its windshield mounted unit). The connections at each end are rock solid, the cord itself is, as I say, very heavy duty, and, all in all there is just nothing but great things to say about this.Very affordable, considering the high quality. This cord will likely outlast my car!Pros:- Heavy Duty- Solid Connections- Quality Build- Carries Required Voltage- Plenty of LengthCons:None. But, keep in mind, since it is a solid cord, it's not very flexible, and it does take up a bit of space.For me, I just kept the sturdy box it came in, and I just use a cord wrap and keep it in the box, in my trunk, so it's out of the way and not making a mess, and is just there for when I need it.All in all, a great product at a great price!Highly recommend!

This is a very heavy duty and good quality12 feet long extension cord
This is a very heavy duty and good quality12 feet long extension cord that looks like 12 AWG or slightly larger wire as others have mentioned. The high current capacity for a very heavy duty cord of this type has another benefit of delivering higher voltage to moderately heavy loads like a portable air compressor. Smaller wire size power cords like common 16 gauge power cords will get warm and not deliver full power to moderate loads. Even a 14 gauge extension cord is a rare item, so this even heavier than 12 AWG power cord is a very rare and special item. The power cord is deliberately not fused in the plug because a fuse operating at near the rated capacity would run hot inside the close quarters of the plug. An outboard in-line fuse could be added a couple of inches away from the plug if it is wanted by anyone to splice in a fuse holder. To confirm the plug is not fused the plug was opened and inspected and photographed to show the direct connections of the 12 AWG conductor wires to the plug side contact spring leaves and spring loaded tip button. Connections were found to be shiny good quality solder joints, and the entire power extension cord appears to be very well made. Attached photos show the inside of the power plug. I wish I could obtain some of the bare plugs alone for use in making up other custom power cords for specialty use, for example with SAE connector ends, and using the more flexible audio speaker cable for custom equipment power cords. The unfused heavy duty plug that BESTEK is using on this extension cord is itself a rare item. If there is a way I can get a few of the bare plugs alone I want them and welcome a BESTEK rep to contact me.

sturdiest design I have seen, verified: fuse, 12AWG wires and full 12 ft
This review is based on inspection of just unboxed extension cable , I haven't tried it yet, but I expect it to perform very well. I plan to use this as an extension for12v tire pump, so I can easily reach the tires on my camper behind the car. See attached photos. The female end is feels very sturdy, over-molded plastic, with very good strain relief. This end cannot be disassembled, but I expect it to work very well. The male plug can be disassembled -- see photo of internals. mine has a 20AMP fuse installed. I measured the wires and they are over 2mm thick which makes them 12AWG as advertised. plastic feels thick and strong. This is the sturdiest one of these plugs I have seen. The current goes from the tip directly to 12AWG wire -- not through a spring as on many designs. Fuse is accessible without dismantling plug. very good strain relief. The length is a bit over 12 feet -- as advertised. I think I will be very happy with product.

Superb Quality
Exactly as advertised. Superb quality. Unlike cheap versions where the wire will heat-up and the ends will fail this product has wire gauge that will easily carry the voltage and amperage and is fused. This is a true 5 star product. Recommend without hesitation.
