Title: Barry’s best hookup wire finally in stock.
Post by: jimilee on May 01, 2021, 09:50:13 PM
Barry finally has some of his hookup wire in stock. I love this stuff. Bonded and flexible. I'd grab some while it's in stock. I got 2 each of 4 different colors (my builds are color coded).  Guitarpcb.com

Have you tried any of the pre-bond wire from BLMS? I haven't yet but I really want to. I'm so tired of tinning the ends of my wires before soldering them onto the boards/components. I know you don't always "need" to but I'm pretty anal about it. I haven't tried Barry's stuff either. Seems like it's out of stock a lot. And if I remember right, it's not available in very long lengths...... BLMS have 500 and 1,000 foot spools!

I'm with you, I don't like it either. Barry's isn't like that, that's what I like about it.

Barry is usually out of it too. I got black, red, yellow and green. I use green for in and yellow for out. Mainly because that's how my test rig is set up, been that way for almost 10 years. I don't know why.
