10ga Wire
 

Hi all,
Was just curious as to what you use for bulk wire?

Thanks

Still looking for suggestions.

Max Amps sells 10ga wire i bought some before the strands where to stiff in them . So i would take a look at TQ wires.

You will need a 80w iron !


I would post your tread in the Electric forum you will get more replies.

Thanks for the reply.
Would a mod be able to move this to a more appropriate sub forum?

I dont think so they only move it if its in the wrong section or if theres already a tread for it. Just go onto the Electric offroad tread or the Radio and Electronics and just type the subject in and post your question into the box.

Why would you go there? Nothing in his post suggests his application is off road related. Radio and Electronics is his best bet. Which is where it now is.

Unless youre running a brushless 1/5, 10G is waaaaay overkill. Youll probably leech power if your not running massive amps. Overall though, TQ, Tekin, Deans all have high quality flexible wire available.

It depends on the use... i use 12 for charge leads. Some 4s use 10 and a lot of 2s use 12. 12 is good for most common connectors. I use epbuddy.com for my wire. The best prices are probably from electronics retailers.

I like TQ as they have all the colors that make quickly soldering a brushless motor a little easier.

TQ 10 Gauge wire

TQ Wire's RC products

i found out about tq wire from a post in the serpent ebuggy thread (post #3082 here: http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...l#post11307547)

i ordered some 10ga - really impressed with how pliable this wire is for 10 gauge - also bought some Deans Wet Noodle 12ga and while this 10ga is not quite that flexible, it is not too far off

also bought some 5mm connectors from tq racing (here: http://www.tqracing.com/5mm_bullets.htm) - first rate

also a call out to the owner of tq racing, Ralph - allowed me to add to the order in mid-stream and keep it all under one shipment charge

have not soldered on the wire yet and have not actually used it so i cannot comment on the quality of the wire from this perspective - but wanted to share what i know

highly recommended so far!

Castle creations makes 10GA wire if you want it.

Works well and comes in the three basic colors.
