This seems like a good deal!

SJTW stands for: "hard service cord"

S is stranded service flexible cable,
J is junior (300v operation),
T is thermoplastic/vinyl jacket, and
W is weather/outdoor wet approved.

The only thing this is missing is oil resistant which would be SJTOW, which would make a cable better for oily environments.

12 gauge will handle a 20 amp service and more powerful tools.

This price isn't spectacular. Its been around this price for quite a while. Great product though. I've had a 100ft for 15 years now.

The product description in the link says 12 gauge, but also 15 amps.
Isn't 12 AWG supposed to handle up to 20A?

When you get into longer distances on an extension cord, that doesn't necessarily follow the standard rules of gauges.

The price listed is for a Southwire 16/3 Insulated Outdoor Extension Cord with Lighted End; 50-Foot, 1288 description; the link takes you to a 12 gauge cord.

Still shows up for $27.67 for me, make sure you all check "other sellers", sometimes it defaults to something higher priced ... I have 100 ft version of this that I got back in 2023 and used for generator ... worked great.

Worked? What happened? Or is it still working great?
