      Dr, are you serious?  Look at the condition of the rig and the attention to detail.  Do you really believe this man (or woman) would be going down the road with a cord beating against the side of it?

      As for the silliness, that's just the attitude to have regarding safety around people.  You rip him for not having a feature in an area the pic doesn't even show.  Do you want to share accurate, positive  info or be the know-it-all with, as you said yourself, a hot end in your hand.  Just brilliant.

       
      Hell yes I was serious look at the picture. How are you going to secure it while traveling?

      As for regarding safety around people, that's a joke. First I don't believe it's my job to protect people from themselves. But that said I have done a ton of events and never had anyone touch in anyway a power cord. It's my opinion and I'm entitled to that. “I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure - which is: Try to please everybody.” Herbert Bayard Swope (first recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for Reporting in 1917)

        I see how it works now had to print it out to take along on my re shopping trip, thanks


        your welcome. Glad I can be of some assistance.
         
        My thoughts on theft of a cord like this are: if someone has it in their mind that they are going to steal your cord, there gonna steal your cord. At most places I go to there is no locked box on the shore power side so all a person would have to do is unplug it from there and take your cord. Even if the twist lock end was in a locked box all they would have to do is cut the cord. Any cutting pliers would go through it. Some would even do it hot if they really wanted it. Besides, although cords are very expensive and noone wants to lose one, I am much more worried about the loss of all my ice cream and refer'd foods that I'd lose if someone were to steal my cord. Like I said, it would be unavoidable once someone has decided to steal your cord. As for the swinging around. I mounted a conduit clamp to the side of my rig which prevents it from swinging around.
