Review on Electrical Extension Strips Single Colour by Dexter Rasberry

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent wire for the best electrical installation

various "stationary" electrical installation projects. It is better to use flexible wire to connect moving parts. It is easy to remove and solders well. This is a true 22 AWG B/R zippered connector cable. Each wire consists of 17 strands of tinned copper. I counted the strands and scraped off the tinning to reveal the copper which can be seen with a magnifying glass. The current is rated at 3.5 amps and almost never heats up. The resistance is stable at a nominal 0.0495 ohms per meter. I measured 60 feet (about 20 meters) with a Fluke at about 1 ohm resistance, making a low-loss wire. It is a rigid lightning wire that holds its shape very well when bent and is particularly well suited for use on printed circuit boards for wiring. I use hot glue to attach long circuits to low voltage circuit boards. In the past I have used it exclusively for power and jumper wiring of PCBs, power wiring of 12V DC LED strips and up to 25ft as power cord for lightning connections for various DC electrical work. I get 8 to 10 millivolts loss on these long runs. Excellent! Can't go wrong and I recommend this wire.
