Shunyata Cable tightness on Hydra 8



I just purchased a Hydra 8 and a 20 amp Python helix alpha cord from a local dealer.

I question whether there is a possible problem with the Cord or the 20 amp inlet in the back of the Hydra.

The cord does not have what i would call a tight fit.

There is about a quarter inch of movement up and down.

From left to right there is a good half inch of movement.

Is this normal?

I have given the cord an extra shove(a few times). Everything is operating ok.

I may add some electrical tape to the supply cord IEC end to firm it up a bit.
Adol,

If you decide to add tape, instead of electrical tape try teflon tape (like used for plumbing). That way, if you later decide to remove the tape, there is no gummy reside left on the IEC, the way there would be with electical tape.

Hi good afternoon, you tell that I have a Hydra 6, and put a tab with Purist Dominus Oyaide c-279, and that the fit is perfect, there is no movement either up or sideways.
I got to the broken record of the IEC or Hydra or the power cord.
Try to claim where purchased
