With a good quality outdoor outlet, good connectors at each end ( I was able to buy hospital quality connectors ) and a good 12 gauge 100' cord, I charge in Florida without problems. I wish I was closer to the outlet, but I touch the ends and they do feel warm, but never hot. If I had to do it over, I might go for 10 gauge wire.
Extension Cords
So the owners manual says no extension cords. But in a pinch, how bad is it really to use an extension cord of proper gauge (say 12/14)?
