I'm interested Al... Why not, I haven't really followed the BOM for the SS so far...

Might as well build my SS with all subs or alts.

Right, so the very last thing I need for my build is some high voltage hook-up wire. It would be absolutely nuts for me to buy 100ft of a couple of different colours from Mouser or Digikey so I don't want to do that. ApexJr as mentioned earlier in the thread would be an option, if it weren't for the fact they only accept wire transfer for international orders - and a hefty fee for the privilege. The best eBay option I found would not ship outside the US.

Can anybody suggest any other alternatives?

 

[Emooze]

I got my wire off of eBay, 100ft for like $15 or so.

 

[Beefy]

Well this stuff and others from the same vendor would be perfect, but no international shipping

 

[digger945]

Pick out what you want, and I will ship it to you.
I need to get some to do some HV wiring myself so it would really be no trouble at all.

How fast are yo looking to build? I need 600V or 1KV hook up wire and I haven't ordered mine yet. I'll be happy to CYA and ship it to you in a Tyvek envelope. I'll get around to ordering it this week or early next. Have to get the Mouser and Digi-Key orders in first. Have a local customer wanting his old HAM radio recapped by Christmas so that has to be done...

well, seeing as I already have a package that's collecting contents for Beefy, I can help out, let me know what you'd like.

Here's my suggestion:

Belden Hookup Wire Teflon, Silver Coated 22 AWG, 83006 - eBay (item 220381966211 end time Oct-27-09 09:36:27 PDT)

Awww shucks, spoiled for choice

I'll have a closer look tomorrow when I don't have quite so much of a headache.

In grounding the heatsinks on the Hybrid, is it the same - i.e. grounding the two sinks on (only) the input side?

 

[runeight]

Correct, both input side heatsinks on both amp boards for a total of four heatsinks. See the wiring diagram on the website.

 

[pabbi1]

Just making sure since it is the SS version on the website...

 

[runeight]

Right. I'll have to fix that.

 

[Beefy]

I just realised this morning that I put my Mouser order for all the parts for this on the wrong credit card. Thankfully the order went through, but I really should pay more attention

Late night idiocy aside, back to hook up wire...... is 22AWG going to be sufficient for the power wiring? I would normally use 17-20AWG for power, just because that is what I would have handy.

 

[runeight]

22awg is more than enough for the currents involved except for the heaters. Depending on how your wire them you might want to use 20awg.

Thanks
