[QUOTE="scamper, post: 97999, member: 22285"] Wire is a hard one as the price for delivery can be expensive. For power injection I tend to go for 2 core mains cable or heavy duty speaker cable or outdoor garden lighting cable, it just depends on what you can get your hands on at a decent price. A while ago Masters closed down and I bought up big when they were in their last days, I got 2 core mains and garden lighting.
