Mislabeled? in my review

I don't see how this can possibly be 14 gauge wire. Since I don't have precise measuring equipment, I put it in my wire stripper, and it didn't even fit in the 14 gauge slot. I then put a 12-10 fork connector on it, and it fit like a glove, so this wire is actually more like 10 gauge than 14. Disappointing, but I won't bother with the hassle of returning it.

Pros
  • Excellent for repair to wire repairs to refrigerators hinges with wiring that goes to doors.
Cons
  • The wire kit is not suitable for high current applications

A real blood pressure saver.

Very flexible and easy to work with. Used it on an outside A/C unit with a lot of turns and grommets to pass through and the flexibility made it a breeze to accomplish.

Pros
  • Feels good, looks good. Would buy again.
Cons
  • The wire kit's colors might not match the color grading on electronic devices

Ridiculously high-quality wire. Incredibly soft but tough, high-quality silicone insulation. I want to buy more of it just to weave a sweater out of it.I started typing the previous sentence as a joke, but when I got to the end of it, I realized that a woven silicone/copper wire blanket would probably feel amazing and be ridiculously easy to clean.

Pros
  • Nice flexible wire. Just what I was looking for.
Cons
  • The wire kit's insulation is not flame retardant and may catch fire easily

Great durability and flexibility!

This wire was just what I needed to fabricate a " boning " machine for our baseball bats on an old lathe we had. The color selection saved me from buying multiple wire, easy to wire my creation and easy for someone else to follow the design. Flexibility was a must as the carriage moves 18" along the bat surface. I always check Best Buy for all my project needs - great prices and variety of productsGreat product ! Thanks again !

Pros
  • Electrical
Cons
  • The wire kit's colors may create confusion when identifying different circuits

Great wire for my opinion

The combination of gauge, quality and colors make this a great purchase. The wires are very flexible. Although not as flexible as Deans wet noodle, they are good enough and a lot cheaper (and more colors). I recommend this product without reservation.

Pros
  • Easy to work with - the silicon adds a nice touch.
Cons
  • The wire kit does not come with any connectors or attachments

High quality and it comes with a velcro strap.

I used this kit to fix broken wires in the door wiring harness on my truck. Worked like a charm, and much better flexibility than the manufacturer made harness that develops hard spots resulting in broken wires over time.

Pros
  • BEST WIRE I HAVE EVER WORKED WITH.
Cons
  • The wire kit's tinning is of poor quality and may oxidize easily

Expensive cost, but only alternative

The quality of the product can only be shown over time, so it's too early to tell.Although the wire is tinned, surprisingly it's tough to solder using lead-less solder. Lead solder is better, but still not great for tinned copper wire. The cost is very high for what you get, but it's the only quick alternative for small quantities on amazon and other sources.The low value rating was due to quantity and poor solderability.

Pros
  • Best!!!!
Cons
  • The wire kit has a limited temperature range and cannot be used in extreme conditions

High quality true awg cable

I bought this cable for a install of car audio equipmentMy jl audio fix 86 and twk 88It’s easy to use. And the different colors are nice to clearly distinguish power ground and remoteI would buy again for sureTrue spec high quality no complaints here

Pros
  • Perfect amount of wire. Soft wire making wiring easy. Good buy.
Cons
  • The wire kit's color may fade over time, making it difficult to distinguish between them

Super flexible wire

Awesome wire! Super flexible! Used it to replace some broken wire in my car lift gate that had cracked from cold, I'm very confident this stuff won't break in the future. Wire is also tinned making soldering a breeze

Pros
  • The wire is about as flexible as the Dean’s wet noodle wire and at a much lower cost.
Cons
  • The wire kit's packaging is difficult to open and might cause damage to the wires inside

Convenient assortment

Convenient when you need several different colors, but only a few inches-better than buying several 25 ft or longer rolls-especially when you only do an electronic project every blue moon. Like the wrap to keep the wires from going everywhere.

Pros
  • I was skeptical given the price, but turned out to be quite pleased.
Cons
  • The wire kit's packaging is not recyclable

Very good quality. Very flexible.

I bought this wire to build a project for a presentation and it worked great. It was very flexible, so it was easy to work with, and took solder well.

Pros
  • Work great for hooking up car stereo amplifier remote turn on wire jumper from loc
Cons
  • The wire kit is not suitable for professional-grade projects

excellent flexible wire

Very flexible nice bright colors. Wire is thick and very conductive. I use it for my slot car controller. Have to give this four and a half Stars.

Pros
  • Nice flexible wire. Works great.
Cons
  • The wire kit may fray over time, causing electrical risks

Perfect for rc use for my opinion

Perfect for using with rc vehicles it's a fraction the cost of rc specific wire but every bit as flexible I bought them for irrigation but these won’t last under soil.

Pros
  • Great quality & flexibility
Cons
  • I bought them for irrigation but these won’t last under soil

High quality, soft and flexible. That's my feedback. THIS looks like the type of wire you find in good quality meter probes and patch cords.

Pros
  • I was rewiring a vanity that has two 90° turns. This worked great.
Cons
  • Wire is more like 18 or 20 gauge. Thick coatings makes it difficult to get into existing looms.

Genuine Silicone Wires

These wires are great and high quality. They came tied with a Velcro strip and in a zipper type plastic bag. The insulation is real silicone, soft, rubbery, very flexible and temperature resistant. I put the insulation part I peeled from the wire on my soldering iron heated to 240 C for at least 10 seconds and it didn't melt. The wires themselves are made with very fine strands that adds to the flexibility. The strands look grey/silver and the label on the bag says Tinned Copper wire. They wick

Pros
  • High strand count copper core,12 AWG silicone stranded wire has 680 strands 0.08 mm tinned copper wire,the copper strands are tinned,protecting them from corrosion and making it easier to solder.
Cons
  • The wire kit may not be compatible with certain types of soldering materials
