... can be found inside the cords of old keyboard, mice, all sorts of cables for
computer accesories, USB cables for example.
There's 4 strands in it, black, red, and two other colors.
It's multistranded so it has adequate flexibility.
No it doesn't have sillycone insulation and it doesn't have a million strands,
so it doesn't have that "springy" consistency. That's about it.
I use it everywhere between driver and diode, even on my 1.5Amps labby build.
This stuff is inferior to the wire being sold here on the forum, but it works
just fine for my purposes and it is free when you look in the right trash bins,
because ball mice and old keyboards are being tossed out everywhere in large quantities.
Just one 2 meter cable lasts me a decent number of builds.
So if you need some laser wire but can't wait for shipping or feel like recycling
something for free rather than buying wire, hey, maybe you can be happy with
some USB wire, too.....
All this being said, the "luxury" wire being sold on the forum really is pretty awesome, I had never had the pleasure to work with such cool wire before.:beer:
