We’re excited to announce that Panther is introducing a new cord plug for our Panther extension cords – namely the Right Angle (L) cord plugs. The reasoning behind this shift is simple. Based on extensive market research and discussions with our customers, we found that Right Angle cord plugs provide greater benefit given how our customers use the Panther extension cords.
What is a Right Angle (L) cord plug?
A Right Angle (L) cord plug is essentially a cord that connects to the plug at a 90-degree angle.
What are the advantages of a Right Angle (L) cord plug vs a Straight Angle (I) cord plug?
Because of its design, the Right Angle (L) type cord connector typically takes up a narrower space and allows the cord to run along the wall or floor more smoothly.
Not only that, Right Angle (L) cord plugs can also protect people from injury, as there is less chance of a person tripping over a cord hanging in mid-air since a Right Angle cord would run parallel to the wall or the floor.
Last but definitely not the least, the stubbier L-shaped design is less likely to be dislodged when the cord is accidentally tugged.
Why is Panther offering Right Angle (L) cord plug design for its extension cords?
Based on market research, we find that extension cords are normally placed behind furniture or in areas with high foot traffic. This is why we have started to offer extension cords with the Right Angle (L) cord plugs, so that our customers can reap all the benefits this cord plug type can provide.
Having said that, we also recognize that some customers may still prefer the Straight Angle (I) type cord plugs. As such, we will be maintaining select extension cord models with this design. Customers can also request for made-to-order products with your desired cord plug – simply send us your desired specification through this contact form.
Yep, good summary on the benefits of right angle plugs. Saves space, is less likely to get in the way for being tripped on etc. Good article!
Thank you for taking the time to read our article! Indeed, we’ve found that right angle plugs are a lot more useful when paired with our extension cords, and we’re excited for our customers to reap these benefits too 🙂
I really want to buy right-angle plug extension cords from your brand. But how? They are not available in the malls I’ve been to.
Good day! You can purchase from us directly through our Shopee and Lazada stores.
re: 3rd prong
I want the right angle plug but I noticed that it has 3 prongs and my sockets are not. What to do without changing my sockets.
Also, do you charge extra for special orders? (length/shorter and longer) socket variations.
thanks
Good day! We do have right angle plugs which are 2 prong – PEC 0906, PSP 1202, PSP 0211. You may want to consider these!
Yes, we can manufacture made-to-order extension cords (change in length), but we will provide a quotation based on the changes requested. You may email us at pantherproduct@gmail.com so we can better assist you for your inquiry!
We hope this helps. Please do message us if you have any questions!
