Hello:
Was wondering if anyone makes a GFCI device that would just plug into a wall outlet, and effectively be in series with, and provide protection to, an extension cord (with perhaps a drill at the end) ?
Have never seen any. None at HD either.
Beginning to believe they don't exist.
If not, why not ?
Thanks, Bob
You could always just build your own, with a regular GFCI receptical, a box, and a heavy duty extenstion cord.
Or you could spend $60 bucks on the yellow thing here:
Do a Google search on "Shock Buster". They sell them at Lowe's:

Nobody ever left footprints in the sands of time by sitting on his butt. And who wants to leave buttprints in the sands of time?
Bob They exsist. I have a couple but don't recall where I bought them. Warren
Yes, you can buy them. I got mine at the local hardware. Same Test/Reset buttons, everything, only it plugs into an outlet. I use them whenever I take a power tool outside or more importantly for Christmas lights. Very handy.

I bought one at a Harbor Freight store for about $5. I think they also sold a model for about $15 and one for $20.
