Hi John, thanks for the tip but I am still confused. First of all, which 3.5mm mini plug did you use from Radio Shack? I was there today and couldn't find anything as you described.

For those that don't know, the narrow plug is the hot side for the extension cord and would go to the smaller extension side of the plug.


And I am especially confused about this statement. OK, the extention cord is going to have two wires, one is hot and one is neutral. Which one of these two wires should be in contact with the plug and how? I've never had any sort of electronics training at all so please excuse my ignorance. Your help is greatly appreciated. Hope to hear from you soon.
