    For all you mobile detailers what length cord do you travel with? I'm trying to determine if 50ft is sufficient or 100 ft. is the better choice? Thanks in advance for all replies.

    usually two 50' cords. Picked up a 50' 14 gauge today with a 3 plug block on the end for $38 at HD. Smokin deal.

    Unless you're certain you'll only be using low current draw devices if you're going the run a 100' extension cord or daisy chain two 50s you'd be smart to opt for 12 gauge.
