Cheapest hook-up wire
« on: March 13, 2010, 08:28:04 PM »
I am looking for the cheapest place to get 22awg solid hook up wire (250 to 1000 feet). So far, powerwerx seems the best with 500ft at just under $25 plus $8 shipping. Any other ideas?

Thanks for the links, but looking through the online catalog it looks like those are all stranded hook up wires  :-\

You guys actually buy wires?

Just go find a renovated building in town and the bin will be full of old phone, network and power cables.

Yes, but im assuming he wants good quality wire, not chunks that builders threw out.
Also, the chances of him finding the right wire are very slim.
