Excellent RV Extension Cord – Heavy Duty Quality and Best Value for Power Needs!
Size: 25-Foot, Style: 90° Locking End
The Camco Power Grip 25-Ft 50 Amp RV Extension Cord has been absolutely essential for our RV camping adventures! As full-time RVers who frequently encounter campground electrical pedestals that are inconveniently located, this heavy-duty extension cord has solved countless site setup challenges. The 50 amp capacity handles our RV's full electrical load including air conditioning, and the 25-foot length gives us the flexibility to position our rig exactly where we want it.
What impressed me most is the exceptional build quality and safety features. The cord feels substantial and professional-grade, clearly designed to handle the demanding electrical requirements of modern RVs. The 90° locking end is genius—it keeps the connection secure and reduces strain on both the cord and the pedestal connection, which is especially important during windy conditions or when other campers accidentally bump into it.
The Power Grip handles make connecting and disconnecting so much easier and safer, especially in wet conditions or when wearing gloves. The cord is rated for 125/250V and 12,500W, giving me complete confidence that it can safely handle our RV's maximum electrical demands without overheating or voltage drop issues that can damage sensitive electronics.
For such a heavy-duty, professional-quality 50 amp RV extension cord with excellent safety features, the price was absolutely the best value I found anywhere. RV dealers charge much more for comparable cords with fewer features. I'm very likely to buy a second one as backup and have recommended it to fellow RVers in our camping group. This cord has made campground electrical connections so much more convenient and reliable! Solid 5 stars!

Great power cord
Size: 25-Foot, Style: 90° Locking End
I'm very happy with the quality of this power cord. The one that came with my RV came straight out of the side and 50 amp cables are heavy. This cord has a 90 degree end that takes away the leverage factor of the other one. This should be much easier on the RV wall connector. Well worth the cost.

Good RV Power Supply Cord
Size: 25-Foot, Style: 90° Locking End
It's an overall good value for the cord. I purchased so I'd have a spare in the rv and because my original is very short, I may need the extra length one day. I plugged it in and it works as intended, it appears to be good construction and quality materials.
I've been caught in a situation before where my cord went bad (the inlet on the camper overheated and caused the plug in the melt and burn up, this could happen to anyone) it was after hours, so I couldnt run to a store and get one. Had to suffer through the night with no AC and wait until the next morning to go to an RV superstore and pay double what Amazon charges. If you take your rv out alot I highly recommend keeping a spare cord.

Great product! I do not understand why anyone would make or buy any cord without a 90 degree plug-in for their RV.
Size: 25-Foot, Style: 90° Locking End
We had to replace the plug on our RV: The plug was destroyed by the stiff 50 amp cord that; came with our RV that put a lot of pressure on the plug-in on our RV causing it to arc and melt both the male and female where the cord was plugged into the RV. . The heavy duty 90: degree end has a soft flexible cable and greatly reduces the stress on the RV plug. I expect this cord will last much longer. Would recommend this cord to anyone. I do not understand why anyone would make or buy any cord without a 90 degree plug-in for their RV. Dealers may not have this item in stock.
