Budget High Current Power Cords

danager,
As I stated, power cables that are very stiff will sometimes take a herculean effort to get them to align with the wall outlet or component inlet.
If you have never experienced this then you haven’t used really thick rigid power cables.

hickamore,
I have had 2 different brands that use plastic IEC/AC that have shattered under pressure due to stiffness and too much twisting. I guess if you are aware of the plastic, take special precaution, and it may not be an issue.

Just be weary of power cords that are made too cheaply. They use plastic parts that break easily.
