Alright, so I have been talking to a Chinese based wire manufacturer about silicone wire and their price is pretty cheap.
Previously, I have ordered from a company based out of California, but their prices are about 5 times that of the Chinese based company.
The problem is, What the hell would I do with 60,000ft of wire?
Their MOQ is suppose to be 10,000 meters (of each color, so 60,000ft! lol) but I talked them into doing 10,000M total (red,black)
I got them to further agree to a 5000 meter total order. Giving us 7500ft of each color.
Here's the main information for this GB
There will be 2 options.
The smaller 26AWG costs more because it's being manufactured specifically for us. The 24AWG they carry as an in-stock item.
Item: 26AWG Silicone wire
Specs:
60 strands of 0.05 tinned copper
0.01" silicone insulator
OD 0.95mm
Item: 24AWG Silicone wire
Specs:
40 strands of 0.08 tinned copper
silicone insulator
OD 1.5mm
Price:
26AWG: $0.10/ft
24AWG: $0.04/ft
No minimum, but each order will be in multiples of 2 (1ft red, 1ft black)
I was quoted 18 days lead time for manufacturing from them, I doubt a smaller order would take longer.
