....spare time cable stripping, eh?

lol the cheaper stuff is not Pyrotenax , some other product .

As much as I would have loved to use micc , i have hardly ever used the stuff and the entire materials budget is about 50 quid so using expensive cable is out the question...

I’ve used black FP200 quite a bit p clipped, it’s easy to shape and looks neat, just keep the bend radius not to sharp it kinks. I tried Hi Tuf though it’s what I’ve used every time now.

You mentioned "several lights", DD...
several lights and a £50 budget for the whole job...
I'm wondering what lights and how many?

 

[Dustydazzler]

50 quid is materials for the job to cover everything like cable & wiska boxes (not including the lights Which customer has purchased)

I like my pyros orange.

Pyro used externally is the exception to the rule as it is recommended to use white to reflect heat as the outer sheath is not critical to the structure of the cable.

Personally I am not a fan of the orange, I prefer bare copper sheath for aesthetics or black if it needs to be sheathed.

I like my pyros orange.

I like my pyros naked, and buffed to a shine. But then I am a bit of a deviant...
