Which TZ tapes are best for labeling computer cables and power supply black cubes?

On cables/wires like cat 5 - cat 6 data wiring I used to use just a black SHARPIE. And on the other, I believe 1/2" black on white TZ tape should be fine.

I really can't see why any of the tapes wouldn't work for the project you have in mind. I have labeled cables, attach cases, camera cases of the vinyl kind and just about anything that I feel needs a label.

There is a special TZe tape designed specifically for Cables and Wires -TZe-FX231 Flexible Tape. It is specially formulated for bending, wrapping and flagging.

We use the label tape to label fire alarm, Security and CCTV devices. We also use it to label almost all of our cable.

I really can't say as I do not usually label those items. I will say the tape does stick well to the items in the office...plastic and paper and if I want to change the label it is better for me to put a new label over the old as opposed to trying to remove the old label. My husband, an electrician, uses the wire labels given to him and those labels are not as sticky as the TZ tape.

Shaw offers the tape for Selitac but it's very costly. I use an almost identical tape made for A/C ducts. Not regular duct tape but a shiny, metallic tape at about 1/4 the cost. Ask at Home Depot or Lowes plumbing department.

Connecting the negative (black) first is the safest approach. This cable does work well with a small compressor. Enjoy!

Banana plugs + bare wire. Personally, I prefer bare wire and het just as good results as those who insist on the esoteric.

Anthony: The best solution is to seal the connectors with black gummy electrician tape (not the regular black electrician tape) normally found in Lowe's or Home Depot. Gummy tape forms a solid barrier when stretched and wrapped. As to the RJ45 long distance, the connectors do what they are designed to do -extend the power from a power adapter and a device. I use it to extend the power adapter that comes with the repeater radios I install in a fixed network.

TZ and TZe tapes are basically the same. The "e" or "eco" tapes use slightly less plastic in the packaging and tape cartridge. From the brother website: "The TZe tapes are more environmental friendly; plastic weight reduced by 15%, contains 5% recycled plastic, smaller packaging, and energy efficient film ribbon. TZe tapes can be used in place of TZ tapes. Some newer P-touch models have been designed to use only the TZe tapes (a "TZe" symbol on P-touch machine cover) and in those models, TZ tapes cannot be used in place of TZe tapes." http://www.brother-usa.com/FAQs/Solution.aspx?FAQID=200000030209&Model=1303&ProductID=PT7500&Keyword=#.U2CMPqJv6hQ

What is the difference between the TZ tapes and the TZe tapes? Are they interchangable? Description of Solution 200000030209 The TZe tapes are more environmental friendly; plastic weight reduced by 15%, contains 5% recycled plastic, smaller packaging, and energy efficient film ribbon.

If you're looking at extremely long life and reliability, you would be better off looking into lto5 tapes. But, they come at a price

Google "Very Cheap TED 1001 House Power Monitors (and possible hacking)". You can run a perl or pyhon script to get the data on linux if your computer savy.

It should work fine for this purpose. I've been using this type of tape for over 24 years as electrical tape for aircraft applications. I stopped buying the traditional electric tape years ago, because it fails even in moderate heat applications. For beefing up the end of USB cables, this should be great, and you won't have the sticky mess that electrical tape usually makes after a short period of time. F4 tape (self sealing silicon tape) also works well for sealing small low pressure tubing.

For clear 12mm 1/2" labels you'll want TZ-131 and for black on white 12mm labels you'll want TZ-231. There's also stronger adhesive and acid free models as well, like TZES231 and TZEAF231 but you probably don't need those.

I think the labels are a marketing gimmick. Electric current is the same and protects everything plugged in. I LOVE this unit!! I had purchased many others more expensive ones and returned them. This was the best of them all, does not make any noise and has a cool blue light when powered on. I use it for my 50" plasma, Yamaha AV-730, Verizon DVR, DVD Player, VHS, and Wii. highly recommend it!

This label maker uses labels. TZ, I believe. Available in at least two widths. BTW, find the setting that allows small margins, by default the label maker has a long lead and tail of waste.

I don't know, but there is a problem with this tape! The pack I ordered stuck to itself and couldn't pass thru the labeler. Amazon said to dispose of it, and they sent me a new one at no cost. The second one had the same problem. I returned it, and am awaiting a credit. I suspect these tapes are very old or were stored inappropriately. If no one can answer your ques. email DYMO and they'll advise you.

Absolutely compatible with the IBM (or generic equivalent) lift off correction tape! I've used it together for years!

Just tape that doesn't really work. I bought some Command strips for hanging posters and they haven't failed!!
