Jamie, the close calls were with the mower. The vegas is plugged in at home, with the cord across part of the driveway. Remembered at the last minute to move the cord. Only happened twice. Made us think about a replacement.
We also thought a short locking cord with our extension cord might work in a pinch. Something like this Voltec 16-00590 30/30 Amp RV Extension Locking Cord with Ezee Grip 2 ft | American RV Company

Be careful buying one from West Marine or any marine supply store. The 30 amp connectors are different for dock and RV power. I have 30 amp dock power for my boat that I also use for my RV but I have to use a "generator" connector between the two cords for it to work. The boat cord does not fit in the RV and the RV cord does not fit my dock power.
An extra cord (with a Generator cord connector) also gives you the capability of reaching a post 50' away. Does not happen often, but is nice to have. I carry two cords.
