I acquired this older Black & Decker Hedge trimmer and it seems to have a special kind of cord. Any idea where I could find this cord or what its called? I have not been able to even figure out what the cord looks like yet.
UPDATE: I cut off the extra plastic to get access to plug it in and the tool doesn't even work anyways. Time for the garbage.
It's a normal plug and a standard extension cord should fit even though it looks weird (I have the same trimmer and many tools with similar plugs in my garage right now haha). The plastic around the female side on the extension cord just can't be too large or weirdly shaped so that it'll fit in the gap, but otherwise should be good.
Okay I'll have to check out the store. All of my extension cords are too big to fit in there. Thought there was going to be some proprietary thing. Thanks!
Of course and enjoy the new tool!
Nothing proprietary. It's just not easy to find a cord that doesn't have the big bump that will be in your way for a ground.
