Best wire for the best price aside from welding wire will be knukonceptz
Iv used them for years and will never go back to anything else. There pure ofc 5000+strand is like 3.75 a ft. Virtually unbeatable and will be at your doorstep in 2 days.
The flexibility is amazing. Even there cca 1/0 is good andd will hold 200amps as apposed to 300 for the ofc. The cca is around 1.75 a ft I believe

did you look at the strand count?

DnK 07-08-2011 11:27 AM

its no good?

welding wire is the best bet. strand count is great. when a welder is putting 150+ amps through that wire all day long it has to be good. its also the toughest stuff you will find inside and out.

JohnnyRock1588 07-09-2011 09:28 PM

Sooo wait .. You will take 3.50ish for welding wire thatll do 170 or less amps with 1k strand count but wonmt do 3.75 for a 5k strand count and 300amps????
I don't see much logic in this and as well the best flexibility on the market

I'm thinking of buying some 0/1 Gauge and Knukonceptz seems to good to be true. Do you have any laying around? Could you measure the diameter of the copper conductor? (not including the insulation/jacket)

There is a thread on here comparing 14 types of o gauge with
All measurements check it out, it's very informative.
