Just what I needed
I have ordered a few rolls of this for some projects I am building, good quality wire that is pretty flexible as well, I have some more on order now.

Quality material and true to gauge
If you are a tinkerer and a DIY fixer like I am, you know you can never have enough good quality wire laying around the house. I found this wire to be a true 16 gauge, a great material (top quality tinned copper), and it's insulated well enough to use outdoors if necessary. What more can you ask for?This is my first time getting a product from this company, but I'm so happy with the quality of this wire, that I would consider checking out their other items as well. The wire is pliable and easy to run. Because of the thickness, you want to make sure you've got a quality pair of cutters. Good quality materials are the most important part of any project, so I would definitely recommend this wire! Pleased with it.

Good quality 5 conductor wire. Heavy duty outer jacket.
This is really nice wire!! The think outer insulation makes it a perfect choice for outdoor projects. The individual insulated16awg wires are tinned copper, and are true to gauge. I got this for a small side project. I've got 5 20-watt solar panels that don't do any good by themselves, so I'm building a rack to hold them. This wire will run to each panels + & - wire and combine them all into a single MC4 connector. In theory, I should end up with a parallel panel arrangement generating about 100w (18.5v x 5.5a), which is useful for a solar battery charger/maintainer. With the leftover wire, if there is any, I'll just make solar extension cables for low power solar setups. I can definitely recommend this wire, and I not only WILL get it again, I already did. 5/5 stars in all respects.

AC & DC sides - Same Bat Cable, Same Bat Time
I like this wire. I like this companies products. I've now ordered this 16 Gauge, UL 2464 Tinned Copper Stranded Wire for LED Lighting in 3 different flavors. I got the 3 wire / conductor, the 5 wire, and now the 4 wire. The 5 wire is great for LEDs with a DC dimmer (AC - hot, neutral, ground & DC positive, negative for my dimmer switch). Boom! all done 1 cable. I got the 4 wire for my third LED high bay; I already had an available ground in the rafters next to the fixture. I ran the cable down and 2 AC wires (hot to toggle switch, neutral to neutral) & 2 wires for DC dimmer. Done. The 3 wire I used for my first High Bay - I had another two wire cable for the dimmer. I had to zip-tie those two together.The wire is - 16 gauge tinned copper - nice supple / pliable PVC insulated outside diameter is a spit bigger than 5/16" (fits well in NPT3/8" cable gland) . The Engineering Tool Box specs this wire at 6 amp carrying capacity up to 1000v @ 30 deg. C (86 F) ambient temperature. There is a .71 correction factor for temperatures between 41 - 45 deg. C (105 - 113 deg. F) So:6(amps) x .71 = 4.264.26 amps is enough amperage for (3) 150w LED lamps. I'm using each cable for one fixture – I prefer to have the amperage up there for additions and the extra cost is minimal. I don't mind the extra cost for the marine rated tinned copper, but this company sells the same cable in the non-tinned flavor also.This is quality cable and makes for quick easy installations.I'll call that 5 StarsThanks for ReadingTip: Don't get your crires wossed. Make a schematic – if you put AC power on the DC side your likely to fry your lamp.

Expectations met, lighting project completed
Needed this so I could have some small led lights added to a dark stairwell going to my basement. Please note that I did not do this installation myself due to it being more complicated than expected. This project involved drilling into concrete and adding a new breaker, I was not comfortable attempting that on my own. I had a more experienced friend do this for me, but he said this wire was exactly what was needed and its of good quality. The lights are in and working as expected, there were no problems with the wire, project was easy for someone with experience so I can say I am satisfied and happy to recommend this!

Great quality wire
This is really great quality wire. The outside sheath is sturdy and will protect the wires from abrasion and weather. The wires themselves are true to gauge. The insulation is decent quality and strips easily. This is tinned OFC, so it is top quality wire. I got this to rewire my trailer lights so I could add reverse lights. This works very well for that application.

Nice thick outer coating
I'm using this wire to run a set of 3 puck lights in a van build. The outside cover is nice and thick and will stand up to bends and edges in the typical van. I was hoping to run positive wires without all the splicing by going to the closest light and then off shooting to the other individual lights.It works well for that purpose but I found that I'm using the same amount of but splicing and heat shrinking as i was before. Not the wires fault, mine in my thinking I could just dig out individual wires from the cable. 18 gauge seems a little thinner than what I'm used to, but plenty for low wattage LED puck lights.

Nice Thick Jacketed Cable
The jacket around the cables is thick and strong. The cable bend radius is about 90 degrees. The cables within the jacket are nice wires with nice sleeving. The wire gauges look correct. The internal of the cable is solid. You will need to make sure you have something to cut the jacket cleanly.
