Koldwater 3-Prong Y Splitter Extension Cord vs Maximm Cable 2-in-1 Outlet Power Splitter

The Koldwater is the safer pick for most shoppers. It carries a 13A rating and UL listing, and you get three cords in the pack. The Maximm is rated 10A and ETL listed, but it adds an LED power indicator and a locking female end that keeps plugs from working loose. Build is similar on both: 16AWG copper in a PVC jacket. Owners of short splitters like these mostly report they do the job; the lock and light are the features people single out on the Maximm.

• Choose the Koldwater if you need three splitters, want the higher 13A rating and UL listing, or plan to use them outdoors where the weatherproof SJTW jacket matters.
• Choose the Maximm if you want the locking female end and the LED power indicator, and one 1.5 ft splitter is enough for your setup.
