Adapter for Contractor Cords

Somemedic

Folks i wanted to have the ability to plug into the garage without dragging that welding lead of a cord that comes with the camper. Will the following work as an adapter? I am not versed in these things so your patience is appreciated.

This is similar to what I use:

I like it better. It's cheaper and has that same lockring.

And it's on Prime? Take my money...

This is what I use ... this hooks to the connector on the trailer just like the power cord. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01L2BLRAW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I utilize an ABN 15A to 30A RV Power Cord Converter Plug, which I paid $12.99 on Amazon. Works great, is small and I utilize it 100% of the time and bypass the need for the heavy 30A standard cord. With everything possibly on with the TAB you still will pull less than 7A total in power. Use an adapter, an extension cord (25-50 ft.) and all will be ok.
