At first I was surprised that the cable supplied is not "COSCD" but "in line". Now I see that in the product description an upgrade from 15.07.2009 is in it, where the new manufacturer "InLine" is indicated. Did I have just noted. I suspect it involves an equally high-quality cable. I walked's about a 2 meter long cable with a 5-meter-long to replace. Although I have not measured the length of the new, but it's me long enough, and it is also black, or dark gray or similar. Now it occurs to me still that my 2 meter cable 3 x 0.75 mm² was, and this one 3 x 1.00 mm², so even a little stronger. But actually I wanted to point with this post only extra-sure that the manufacturer is different now, because I had it myself overlooked. Just so no one like me surprised that the manufacturer is different from the item description. The connector looks the way a little bit different than in the picture. Hold another mold. But remains a straight IEC connector. Only the handle is somewhat rectangular. In the in-line website another mold is also displayed. More to a power cord can I as a non-electrician not write unfortunately. And because of me, a judgment is expected, I see no reason why I should give less than 5 stars.
