IRON FORGE CABLE Weatherproof Water Resistant Extension Cord Connection Box, Outdoor Plug Cover for Electrical Connections, Power Tools, Power Strips Landscape and Holiday Lightings - Black

This outdoor protective box works well.This is the third box that I’ve bought for different areas around my property.The first one I bought was many years ago and it still functions perfectly.Great product if you have limited outlets, but need additional because you have more power needs than just two plugs.Keeps everything dry and safe.Highly recommend.

It is very durable and water resistant as long as you put it together right. Had to drill a hole for the main cord to go into it and getting the seal around the cords just right is a little hard but, I do recommend.

EDIT: November 2022 - its not so much that I got a bum box, but rather the rubber grommet in the box (that surrounds the wires and provides a water proof seal) was bad. The grommet is in 2 parts, but the one I initially received had fused into one piece. The manufacturers kindly sent me a new box (thank you!) and I quickly realized the problem. I did ultimately give the box 4 stars because it does not perform as advertised - one needs to use thinner wires than the product info indicates it supports. Using a standard outdoor extension cable (like the ones pictured) stress and deform the box enough that it leaves a tiny sliver of an opening. I just surrounded the box with a garbage bag, and it solved that problem. Just short of a slam dunk!ORIGINAL: September 2022: There are no real instructions for how to thread the cables into the box. So I did the best I could (the box itself is on the roof serving as a junction box for a remote control timelapse photography rig so it is hard to access so I don’t have a picture of the way it is) but I must be doing something wrong, because I can’t fit the attaching thing down far enough and it makes the box go out of square when I try to close it. Consequently, it leaks along the edges and I have to contain it in a trash bag to protect water does not get in. So it works but I’d rather not have to do this work around if somebody knows the proper way to thread the wires into the box. Thanks!

Box is exactly what I needed. Easy to install and all cords going in or coming out is sealed from water. I mounted under a deck and can now have 110 voltage for bug zapper going out and a 24 volt low voltage wire coming out for low voltage light. This is a great product. If I needed another one, I would get it!

These work great for holidays when rain and snow are blowing all the decorations, keeps connections dry. Only issue is the tabs breaking off when unsnapping to get wires out of box.

Bought Jun 2022, worked great until this week Apr 2024. When I checked it out, the lid was warped and a 1/4 to 3/8 gap had allowed water to enter. It was a green one, which is not listed as an option any more....maybe that color had something to do with the product failure. Nevertheless, not very happy about it.

I am about 180lbs and it took me pressing down with full weight to get this to close and lock. Love the premise though. I do have a slight gap on locking side after a couple of months though. Not a huge issue yet.

nothing

Nice and quick fine and it’s waterproof box
