Valterra Mighty Cord 50AF-15AM Locking Ring Adapter for RV - 12"

The Valterra A10-1550DBK Mighty Cord adapter allows a 50 amp RV inlet or cord to be powered from a 15 amp household style outlet using a 12 inch dogbone. It features a 15 amp 5-15P male plug on one end and a 50 amp locking ring style female connector on the other, designed to mate with many 50 amp RV inlets equipped with a threaded collar.

This adapter is intended for light duty use when you want to keep a 50 amp coach plugged in at home or in storage for battery maintenance and low draw loads.

FAQ

Q: Can I operate both air conditioners through this adapter?
A: No. A 15 amp circuit does not have the capacity for heavy RV loads. Use this adapter for light duty and maintenance only.

Q: Does the locking ring mean it seals to the inlet?
A: The locking ring helps mate the connector to compatible 50 amp inlets, providing a more secure mechanical connection and improved weather resistance compared to a loose push in plug.
