Long Bouncy Castle Leads
We've blogged about bouncy castle cables and cable safety previously. It's a topic that we like talking about, but often isn't met withthe same level as enthusiasm by others... Who cares about the leads? It's the bouncy castle that's exciting!
Well, we decided to try and come at it from a different angle to show why not only is it super important from a safety perspective, but why using these cables is great for other reasons, too!
School's, charities and other organisations often ask us to supply inflatables for their events. Inflatables are the biggest attraction and draw for these occasions and are what gets people through the gate.
However, on fields and big open spaces there's often the issue of power supply. If there isn't an electrical socket close by, then they'll need to run off of generators or petrol blowers. These increase the cost of the event which is often frustrating when you consider that plugging them into a socket is practically free.
Cable management is also a consideration. You can't just have leads loose all over the field or where people are walking, causing trip hazards! They need to be tidied away, chased round edges and made safe; Although this often means that you lose a lot of length in feeding the cables out of the way, making it more challenging to draw from sockets instead of generators.
Our standard leads are 25 meters long. It's a very impressive length and we only use the very best leads that are more than capable of this distance without issue.
What we also carry though and have available is extra 25 meter extensions. This may sound like a silly thing to lay claim to; Afterall, people have 25 meter extension reels in their garage laying around. Anyone could plug in two of them together! However, our blowers are commercial grade and draw more power than you can run through those extension reels.
What we have is the highest grade 2.5mm core H0r7n-f leads. Most domestic leads are 0.6mm core or at the very best 1.5mm core and made from low quality materials.
Our leads are 4 times thicker, with 16amp connections and capable or extending our 25 meter leads by another 25 meters when run from a single electrical socket safely.
With the flexibility of running the cables 50 meters, we have managed to save dozens of events the cost of hiring generators! Saving them a lot of money, which has all gone directly to their chairty or fundrasing efforts.
With us, you can safely run the leads much further, providing you some flexibility and saving a great deal of money when on tight budgets!
