It's the one at the Freddy's at Weidler and NE 32nd. Where are you coming from? The one at the Toutdale Walmart looks like it's okay on Plugshare, but you're right, you never know. Actually, it looks like it was recently fixed as well. They may have even put the new connector on.

The ones I checked out were secured so that no twisting could be done.MikeD said:Can anyone say whether or not these new connectors are rigidly connected to the cable, i.e. don't allow any twisting of the cable relative to the connector? I ask this because there is an Eaton QC in Chattanooga that is down, and I thought the fact that it allows such twisting (of at least 30 degrees) might be a factor in its not functioning. QC uses such a thick cable that it is hard for me to imagine how a deliberate robust built-in twisting capability could be easily designed.
