I haven't install them yet.
The job isn't ready to put them in yet! Thanks for all your help. I'll get back in a month? Or 2? The job is going slow!!

I was really impressed with this wire. The silicone coating means no more worries when soldering. I tried burning this coating with my soldering iron at 350C and nothing happened! Meanwhile the core behaved well and I was easily able to get a good, shiny joint. This wire is also extremely flexible thanks to the many thin cores and the silicone sleeve.
I like the handy AWG gauge on the underside of the box and the wires pull easily through the sets of holes at both the front and back. The inclusion of the heat-shrink sleeves and wire ties seems unnecessary to be honest and the wire-stripper completely undermines the professional quality of the wire to be honest - but lets ignore that!
I think this is a great little kit to have available for those little electrical repair jobs that crop up from time to time. There is a good selection of cables, cable ties, heat shrink and a small wire stripping tool.
This should only be used on small low voltage repairs - so definitely nothing that runs on mains power or within the house! But for small repairs to a broken toy or something within the car - like wiring in a dash cam for example, these wires will be great.
the box has a series of holes in the side so can act as a handy dispenser and the cable itself is multi-stranded so makes it very flexible and easy to manipulate around things or through gaps.
All in all a very good kit and something hand to have around when the need arises
This eight colour set of 22awg wire arrived in a generic cardboard box, inside which you'll find the individual wire colours neatly coiled onto small plastic spools and secured with some clear plastic wrap. Alongside the silicone wire itself you'll also get a set of colour matched zip-ties, colour matched heat-shrink and a basic wire stripper tool. The box itself also works as a dispenser, so you can unravel each wire colour, poke the end out of the box and then grab what you need from each spool conveniently without having to open the box.
Oddly the bottom of the box has a wire chart that has significantly different values than the one in the product listing's images, but I would say that the one in the product listing is closer to what I'd expect for this wire. It's fairly common for these affordable import wires to have wild claims about the voltage and amperage, but having two contradictory charts doesn't help matters.
The wire on the spools has the claimed silicone insulation and once you strip that back you'll find the 60/0.08mm stranded wire inside. Both of which give it that signature flexibility and durability when exposed to motion, making it especially good for awkward locations where you're having to bend, twist and otherwise work around obstacles. Like all affordable import wire I gave it a quick couple of tests to verify that it's using real copper, which included a magnet test, sanding through the tin coating and checking the resistance with a multimeter. It had no problem passing all of these tests, the strands are non-magnetic, pure copper shows through the sanded strands and the full 6.1m length of wire measured at 0.32Ω.
So aside from the two wire charts contradicting each other, it's a perfectly serviceable wire for many applications, projects and repairs as long as you've got reasonable expectations. The ￡21.99 asking price does put this about 10p higher per metre of 22 awg than my usual source of cheap silicone wire from Amazon, but you do get an extra colour of wire and some extra bits in the box. I'd have no major concerns or issues recommending this and I'd buy another box if I needed more or different thicknesses on short notice.
Item is as described and what I was looking for.
I really like this sign and would give it 5 stars if it were just a little brighter.
Y'all, I'm so in love with this sign!!!! I was kinda hesitant in purchasing but I am so so happy I didn't..Thank you so much..
I use these to test car audio equipment, and it works amazing, very glad that I bought it
Easy to connect, works great for 700 5volt LEDs, will purchase additional units as I add more lights outside my house.
Product works great! I am running 3 puck led lights and all work great and have had no issues.. I purchased the 100 watt version.

Parfait pour ma lumi re au DEL/LED
Love these little converters, Can run almost any 12v anything within Watt range driver (wide range of sizes).
Small, light weight, water proof and reliable.
I would not recommend as a battery charger, but it can run a constant load. And, no noise, They do not even make a humming sound, and have no fan.
Great for powering 12vdc appliances when you only have 120vac power source.
Used to power 12 led dome lights in an enclosed trailer. Works great, does not get hot. I have this running 14 hours/day 7 days/week for 5 months so far this year.
Installation facile. Fonctionne tr s bien. j ai remplacer mon ancien ballast pour celui si. Fonctionne parfaitement!
I use this for my greenhouse water pump for automatic watering system. Easy to hook up and works great!
Great power supply for prop motors
This is good quality 5 conductor wire with a proper layer of protective insulation. The flexible outer jacket is glossy in appearance and approximately 5.5mm in diameter. The rated temperature of 80 is well within most applications. The individual wire insulation was cleanly removed using quality stripping pliers without losing any of the tinned conductors. The conductor tinning helps to prevent oxidation at your connections and promotes better solder joints when needed. The availability of five conductors makes this suitable for a wider range of applications where 22AWG wire is appropriate.
Excellent quality, works as it should.
Worked just fine for an extension to a switch plate I built.
This mirror is absolutely beautiful it has several light settings it is bright and beautiful a perfect addition to any girls room no complaints
