found: Cord for TDC 116

[P3D Bob Wier <wier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, after having done a fair amount of looking for 
replacement cords for my TDC 116, and modifying several
to fit the fairly strange pin geometry. I finally located
one that will work without modification.

I'm noting it here mainly to get it into the keyword archives.

It's a Levitron "Electricord Heat Resistant mini-plug". Catalog
number A-2275-006-BL A/W 3013.  This particular cord is 6' long,
and will carry 10 amps (which shoud be ok for the 500 watt bulbs
since that works out to 1250 watts). If you replace the bulbs
with 750 watt units, it would be straining it a bit (however -
it's 18 AWG gauge wire - you MIGHT be able to take the plug
apart, and use larger gauge wire and still be ok). It's listed
as a 6' Appliance Cord.

The actual manufacturer is Pacific Electricord Company,
Gardena, CA. 90247 It's suggested for Coffee Pots and Deep Fryers.
The AC plug is non-polarized. 

I got this at a Coast-to-Coast hardware store, catalog number
441-4090 at $4.59 here in Colorado. It takes a bit of a push to
get the plug to fit into the TDC 116 socket, but when it seats
it makes a firm contact as best as I can tell.

THANKS - Bob Wier
