Hi,
I apologise if this is the wrong place to ask, but I figured there's many TV related threads in here
So I've got my TV wall mounted, after I succumbed to @Armageus reverse psychology
It was an absolute pain in the arse to get the power cable in, so in the end, I plugged it in first, and then lifted the TV with the plug in my pocket (top tip lol) so I wouldn't step or trip over the cable, then mounted it onto the wall.
Anyway, TLDR, I want to chase a longer power cable into the wall, versus the too short one that it came with - just what are these called? It's not a kettle plug, it's a 2 prong tubular thing - I appreciate they vary in thickness, but it must have some kind of nickname?
So that I can search for longer ones to buy, then only faff about unplugging it when necessary to measure it when I goto buy one, as I say, it's a nightmare to fit it/basically impossible, once wall mounted - so I only want to measure it once, once I find them for sale in X measurements.
Is there likely to be anything on the plugs writing itself, that would give it away?
I feel embarassed asking, but I've seen so many variables with this type of plug, be it on radios, laptops etc?
Thanks
P.S. @Armageus you caused thismisery obsessed with now wall mounting everything first the TV, then the monitor, and next is the PC 
If only Vogels VonHaus sold PC mounts too ey think of your comission :CRY:
EDIT: Amended to fix my dumbass brand mistake of @Armageus workplace He's the CEO, don't you know
