Is this wire ok?
« on: June 24, 2008, 04:33:46 PM »
Well, I went to my RadioShack, and I couldn't find that kind of wire. But I found some others.
Here are some crappy pics:


24 Guage, Solid


!8 Guage, Solid



This one reads :Rated 300 Volts,22 Guage, Stranded
I'm guessing I should use the first 2 becuase it is a silid and not stranded core?
And would any of these work?

Thats the kind I couldn't find. Is it in the same section as the solder section?

Wrapping wire is --- ehh OK I guess... I don't like the idea that a scraped wire could short to something....

Kynar is way better unless you are wanting to connect to something really really really small like NAND (internal flash) leads...

30AWG Kynar wire should work excellently for just about anything...

go here http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062641

then click  "Available at most stores, find it near you" half way down on right middle... it will tell you which stores have it..

It says they have it in my area, but I didn't see any when I went there today. I'll check tomorrow.
