A short section of solid core electrical wire (12 or 14 ga) works just as well and is much cheaper wouldn't you say? ;)

Yep. So is a piece of string, and that wouldn't ever cut or poke you - is YOUR Tetanus Booster up to date? It won't break, or rust either, and it can't be used as a projectile.

I like these because there are no rough/sharp areas and they dont have to be twisted around themselves,easy on charger cables etc.but as you say there are cheaper ways(bread bag ties for instance)

Perhaps, but the Nite Ize have the benefit of being wrapped in a soft rubbery gel sleeve, minimizing your chances of fraying or slicing into your headphone or iPhone cables. And when something costs less than $3.00 it isn't likely that I'm going to waste time looking for a less expensive option. I've got that kind of cash. (If you need thousands of them, you have a completely different cord-management problem.)

Not sure, they were not that expensive wire has plastic coating not the rubber like them plus you will have sharp edges.

Just so you know, and I'm not going to give a lengthy explanation as to why. The more strands of wire the better. So this cable is better than a solid copper wire would be. If you want to know why you can Google it.

I would hard wire for this application with a wall switch at house level. Not sure you need 12 gauge wire. I believe 14 will work.

need to get wire (16 ga -18 ga), + 2 spade female connecters, and connecters to power source (fused)

Thanks, Daniel. I got 12-gauge speaker wire from monoprice and it works wonders :)

Yeah it could because it's just a wire but why not just go buy wire do $5 from the hardware store

Bill has a good point, but I would recommend you read our discussion in my review first and make your own decision. I have used it like this for a long time until one day the wires melted! I am sure others have had better luck, it's only how much of a risk you are willing to take.

I'm not an electrician, but I did ask if this can be used for LED strips, if this is a regular transformer for low voltage lighting you should be fine. The 12 gauge wire will go a further distance that 14 or 16 gauge.

You could, but it would really be excessive. If you happen to have 4 ga wire run already from a previous installation, you can certainly use it, and there would be no harm in using it, but it is definitely more than is necessary.

A little speculation here... It is designed to be most efficient on a live, single electric circuit. It seems that hard wiring would be possible, but u should call the manufacturer.

too short, way too short... you need a junction box right beside the spot. It's a metric wire, not in your usual store... so you can't change it for a longer one unless you get an electrician to enlarge the wire opening

Yes it works great for me, it works for almost everything,it doesn't work as well for the very small gauge wires.

It is 20ga. wire intended to be used as an electrical lead. It is NOT 22ga. speaker wire.

See if you can find smaller wire nuts at a local hardware store. Also route the wires in smooth straight paths so they dont cross each other and things will take up less space and may fit better. Crossed wire paths take up a lot of space.

Any Electrical supply house will carry this - it is a standard item. Also, Amazon has it prime for under $8.00

I think you can easily order the part (for example, I have another electrical device in my house that uses the same power cord). Then again, if it's more than a few dollars I would think about another one as you would have a spare...

I'm looking to purchase this and solid core copper is the only way to go, in their picture it shows that the wires are solid core and not stranded. So is the picture wrong or does someone not know the difference between stranded and solid core?
