Tools and Hardware Reviews of Milwaukee 48-76-4008 Quik-Lok 8-Foot 3 Wire Grounded Cord
Customer Review: Great Product Weakly Showcased by Amazon
Summary: 5 Stars
I am feeling significant empathy regarding James L. Jahnke's review: the pity is that the grading of the product suffered as a result of reviewer having no way I can see of marking Amazon down when Amazon's weak execution mars the buying experience here of a quality product.
In background, I have owned as many as three Magnum drills, also a few Sawzalls, a Milwaukee grinder, etc., prior to downsizing and then having been relieved of my power tools by some petty thief, and as such am back on the market for tools, with fond recollections of Milwaukee quality.
With my now shopping here at Amazon to fill the bill, it is indeed disappointing to me to see that the listings for the Milwaukee tools with the Quik-Lok cords are spotty in specifying which cord goes with which tool.
In my presently considering the suitability of buying 20 foot Quik-Lok cord(s) to limit the likelihood of extension cord connection snagging in the immediate vicinity of the work area, I have discovered that there are *three* types of Quik-Lok cords, each of which in its turn is available in two different sizes:
1) 5-15P NEMA (3-wire);
2) 1-15P NEMA (2-wire); and
3) L5-20P NEMA (3-wire with twist-lock plug).
In the process of learning the above, I had read and been confused by the 2005 review here where Philip Venard stated, "I am told that it fits all other corded Milwaukee power tools interchangeably," and I as such wonder if reviewer James L. Jahnke's confusion at least in part was rooted in said piece of misinformation.
As convenient as it would be if all Milwaukee Quik-Loc hardware were compatible, the reality is just not so!
Perhaps Amazon could clarify things by:
1) Specifying which particular type of Quik-Lok cord each particular Quik-Lok-equipped tool does take; and
2) Providing a list of Milwaukee tool model numbers that are compatible with each Quik-Lok cord item.
Quibbles with Amazon aside, the Milwaukee Quik-Lok cords are of the highest quality and utility: in twisting the (5-15P NEMA 3-wire) Quik-Log plug into my Hole Shooter prior to getting to work, I always had strong confidence that problems with power getting to the job at hand were going to be the least of my concerns.
