Smart Extension Cord Management With an Extension Cord Reel

Tired of lengths of different extension cords strewn across a garage or working area? My studio space required a number of extension cords to power things like my lighting set-up, laptop, monitor, assorted power equipment/tools, etc. This lead to a pretty messy - and potentially hazardous - working area.
I was recently introduced to a great solution for this. In this video I do a quick walk-through of how I "cleaned up" my studio using a great extension cord reel from the Dewenwils company.

I hate to rain on your parade, but I had a cord reel burn up. It had a breaker in it, but drawing a bunch of current thru it caused it to overheat. Seems that current running thru the wire, coiled up, creates an electrical field that creates heat.

[@theinternetelectrician]

Yes, that's been known to happen. With a large current flow it could cause some heating in the coil. More risk in a much longer cord reel than this, but with low current / wattage loads like this it's not too likely. But something to keep in mind for sure. Thanks for watching!
