Stampede Installed Power Cord - Come on, really!!

[Smokem if you gottem]

Come on Recteq! The power cable supplied with this unit is low quality Chinese made junk. How about introducing a non pvc cord that we can use in cold climates!!!!

all about making a extra buck? Ridiculous.

Well the grill is made in China so not a shock there. It would be nice to have a flexible cord though and just a tad longer.

I missed it- why can’t it be used in cold climates?

Okay, return the grill or sell it. Buy something that you're happy with.

Just curious, since I’ve been using my grill in -3 degree and -11 degree weather lately with no issues. I got 99 problems, but my cord ain’t one.

Disclaimer: The above-mentioned problems have nothing to do with my grill

if you remove the cord it will be much safer, use less pellets and stay cleaner. i agree it could be a bit longer though. are you having issues with it cracking or something?

Buy some SO cord and a male plug and build your own cord. Barring that buy some cheese.

Perfect solution

The cord stiffens up in cold weather. Mine does the same, but I haven't been bothered enough to just put a better, LONGER cord on it.

Well this thread got "unplugged" rather quickly!

Enjoy the day.. someone will win a cooler today! .. Not that is helps a stiff cord but lightens the thought.

Hmm. I wonder if Rec Teq knows about the shrinkage?

WHAT?!?! Whized right by me!

Yeah my cord is very stiff in cold weather too. I do wish it was longer as well and my wife agrees, sorry had to. It's still usable though and if I ever get real bothered by it I will just buy a nice flexible extension cord. Not really a deal breaker for me.

I agree, the cord is not the highest quality, though I didn't expect it to be since it's not a premium grill, but it didn't cost an arm and a leg either. The cord has stayed in a 8" coil hanging on the end handle with a velcro strap since I got it. The cord works as designed and has never prevented me from cooking awesome food so that's the last thing I'd complain about
