Flexible Silicone 22AWG Hook Up Wire - 300V Cables, Stranded, DIY Box-1

Met expectations for a relatively inexpensive item

SU PRESENTACION...

I got this wire because the 40 year old solid core 30ga wire-wrap wire I had on hand was not suitable to use for hacking my Kindle. It. broke. too. easily. Plus, the only color I had was yellow. tl;dr: I am not disappointed once I made a few adjustments. I have stripped a couple of these wires using my 40 year old wire-wrap wire stripper. The last image will hopefully show that, yes indeed, this is 30gs stranded wire. I suspect they drew the wire through a mosquito's mouth. I could not find anything online today that even vaguely resembles my stripper. I did not look only on Amazon. I looked online. In spite of having gazillions of products, Amazon doesn't have everything. My one-stop shopping experience has been irrevocably ruined! Gee, thanks Amazon. You can see the stripper I use in the last picture I've posted with this review. 40 years ago it was the most expensive tool I owned. I do, though I've not tested it, have a wire-wrap tool very similar to this JDV Products HSR30 Tool, Wire, Wrap/Unwrap Strip, Regular with which I have successfully stripped 30ga solid core wire in the past. OK, the way way past. Pros: - The wire is stranded and very flexible. It almost couldn't be more flexible if it was thread. Pleased and impressed by this. - It came in a decently designed, functional, and sturdy box. For storage and dispensing I cannot stress how helpful this is and will be. - The box has a cross dowel that keeps the reels of wire off the bottom of the box allowing for easier dispensing without binding. - There are holes for the wire to come out. You don't have to take the reel out of the box. Cons: - The picture lies! The holes for the wires to come out are not in the bottom third of the box. They're in the top third. Facts are important!bought. eople! 9-) - While the box the reels of wire came in is designed to use to dispense the wire, there is nothing to provide tension during the dispensing of the wire. Obviously too much tension will stretch or break the wire which would not be helpful. A thin bit of foam rubber on the underside of the lis which closes down on the reels might do the trick. Alas, I'm stuck trying a different approach. To fix the tension issue, to help keep the wires from becoming too loose on their respective reels, and to help chaperone the wires to stay one only their own reels I did two things. First, I glued a strip of VELCRO Brand One Wrap Thin Ties, Black, 8 x 1/2-Inch, 100 Count (91140) , hook-side to the box. A second strip, just a tad longer, covers hooks to the glued strip thereby holding the wires flush to the box. Second, I cut the corner off a bit of cardboard and placed it between the back of the box and the wire reels. A picture is provided to help those, like me, who have impaired imaginations. Note, the bend of the corner is in the middle. My hope is that this cardboard insert will suffice in providing enough tension; however, of course, not too much tension.

Perfect signal wire, easy to solder. Quick delivery.

Nice thin wire for a haunted house project I recently 3d printed. I decided to run thin wire up the lamp pole and this 30AWG was the perfect solution. The wire is very flexible with a good coating on it. I like the box it comes in too, it's easy to store and pull wire when you need it.
