ACAR Extension cord

ACAR Extension cord is plain old mains wiring for people who need to move a socket a little farther across a room. By our assessment, that is also its main strength: it is unglamorous but practical, and a decent extension lead saves constant swapping of plugs behind furniture. The downside is equally plain — the real quality lives in the cable thickness, plug fit, number of outlets, and any surge protection, none of which the name tells us. In use, this kind of product disappears into the background until it is badly made, too stiff, or too short. It sits in the most ordinary part of home power accessories, below power strips with extras and above improvised fixes that people should not be using. ACAR is for someone who needs reach, not features.
