About this deal

It can probably be made but I am not sure it would be worth the trouble as it would be a major operation, with the above caveats. As a alternate, I wish they'd at least offer a trade-in or 'amnesty' program for those of us who don't want 18 ga cords. I have a half dozen BRAND NEW, NEVER USED 18 ga. cords that I'd LOVE to swap for 16 ga. ones because I will NEVER use them. And it's not like Festool would have to scrap them? They could ship them with recon machines, or send them out from service if someone needed a cord. They could create a lot of goodwill if this was done properly.

The problem I've got is I can't see a way to get the wires out of the plug-it kit (see the picture below) they won't pull out and I've tried tapping the pins on the other side but no joy? I'm getting the impression they are made not to come out? This ensures a much better electrical connection than you could get just clamping down on bare copper strands. OK, with that out of the way let's get down to business. Here's what we're going to be starting with: That said, I'd like to present another viewpoint. While a financial consideration is likely, it is probably not 'THE' reason. You have to understand the German mindset, to wit:Now let's look at the Plug-It conversion on the left, along side the 16 ga. heavy-duty Festool Plug-It cord which is included with TS-75 and other 'higher-current' machines on the right:

One of the most commonly asked questions on the FOG is about using Plug-It cords on other tools. This thread will attempt to answer all those questions. I will endeaver to get everything right the first time, but - contraty to poular belief - I'm not perfect. And don't forget to put the Plug-it cover on the power cord BEFORE you clamp those wires down, otherwise you'll get to take them out and do it over! Note: Of all the EU contries, basically it's only the UK that uses 110 volts (close enough to the US 120 volts for our purposes) so you typically can't buy the Plug-It's anywhere else in the EU. I've tried. If you find an error, PLEASE PM me so I can correct it. I'm not asking you to PM me so I can hide a mistake or avoid being embarrassed. I'd simply prefer to make any necessary corrections in this initial post and keep discussions about errors or corrections out of the thread to avoid confusion as people read this in the future.The two Plug-It conversion-kits are IDENTICAL exept for the length of the cord that is supplied. One is 360mm, one is 420mm. That's the only difference.

So first let's look at the Plug-It conversion and the US Plug-It cords that you will want to use them with. Here's the standard Festool 18 ga cord which is included with most sanders, jigsaws, the OF1010, and other 'smaller-draw' machines on the left, and the Plug-It conversion along side on the right: BTW - I am NOT an expert on German culture, but I have had enough business dealings with them to understand some things.) SUCESS!! You now know WHICH Plug-It conversion fits on which US Plug-It cord. This works out particularly well if you have a 16 ga Plug-It cord strapped to your DE hose like many here do.In this photo are two Plug-it pigtails, a Plug-It replacement plug, and two US Plug-It power cords. So what if you managed to damage or destroy the plug-it end on one of your Plug-it cords? That's where item #3 comes in. Premiums were set to rise anyway since congress mandated that the NFIP become self-sustaining over the next few years, & I do not expect my fellow tax-payers to subsidize my choices/risks. The issue for us is that they moved the goal posts and I can't comply with the driven pilings if I wanted to. I hope this answers all of your questions on which Plug-It conversion kit you want, what you will get, and how it will work. It is my intent that it serve as 'the' definitive reference document for anyone who wants to learn more about Plug-It conversions.
