Light Archon Tether 16/3 Indoor/Outdoor Extension Cord with Triple-Tap End, Black
Reviewed pricing, lead time, freight, and final configuration are confirmed during quote review before order release.
The Light Archon Tether is the general-purpose power run: a 16/3 grounded indoor/outdoor extension cord with a three-outlet triple-tap end, offered in 25, 50, and 100 ft lengths so one series covers the patio, the garage, and the far end of the yard.
The triple-tap end powers three devices from one run, which keeps string lights, landscape controllers, and small tools on a single home run instead of daisy chains. Reinforced blades and fully molded plugs shrug off the bending and pull that kills commodity cords, and the PVC jacket stays flexible outdoors. Rated 13 A at 125V and UL Certified. Match the length to the run: 25 ft for patio drops, 50 ft for most yards, 100 ft for remote corners, and always uncoil fully under load.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I run on a 16/3 cord?
Light-duty loads up to 13 A total: string lights, landscape controllers, fans, chargers, and small tools. For saws, compressors, and heaters specify the heavy-duty 12/3 Beacon cord instead.
Is it safe outdoors?
Yes, the jacket is indoor/outdoor rated. Plug it into a GFCI-protected receptacle outdoors and keep the connection points off wet ground.
How is it priced?
Light Archon is quote-first. Pick the length, add it to your quote list, and a specifier returns project terms in one pass.
