    Is using thick silicone wire a waste of money?

    Thanks for the clarification, I was simply going by the housing wiring code requirements I'm used to. When I ran the new wires for my oven, because the run was longer than 20' I ended up with 6awg instead of 8, but after a bit more research it appears that's due to the voltage drop which makes...

    possibly E biker slapped with Felony Charges in Fort Collins

    At least I will say when I speed off at 45mph, I realize I'm breaking a law by not having it registered as a motorcycle, but I also follow all traffic laws and generally operate in a safe manner... just on the shoulder.
