> while relying on a very long extension cord for power

er...how's that? What did you connect to?




I called the power company and asked for a "construction box." This is a very common request, rarely turned down, for a "temporary" power hookup for construction purposes.

The "temporary" box was located near the road, about 1/4 mile from my cabin, so I simply ran a very long extension cord through the woods. This arrangement lasted for years.
