HONDERSON 14/2 Low Voltage Landscape Lighting Wire,14-Gauge 2-Conductor,Outdoor Direct Burial Cable,100 Feet

This 16AWG 2-conductor wire is made well and is copper (vs. CCA). For modern LED lights, this will likely work well for most residential applications - 16AWG over 100ft doesnt drop too much voltage with only a few amps of draw by the LED lights. Incandescent/halogen would be a different story. I found the insulation to be very easy to strip without cutting into the copper wire.

Easy to work with, perfect for the job at hand.

Although it’s called “Landscaping Lighting Wire,” this direct burial will handle any low-voltage application where the current load doesn’t exceed 13 Amperes. It’s a great wire for wiring low-voltage remote control deviced. Although the PVC insulation has a maximum voltage rating of 150 volts, this wire shouldn’t be used in circuits operating at voltages higher than 30 to 50 volts. I use a lot of low-voltage direct burial cable for everything from landscape lighting to irrigation valve control circuits. There are many brands to choose from and they all perform splendidly but none of them is inexpensive as this Honderson wire at approximately 24 cents a foot. This is directburial wire, but you do need to be aware of where you are burying it and the depth that you are burying it at so it’s not accidentally damaged. In some cases, in some locations, good wiring practices does call for it to be run in conduit.

Not much to write about other than it worked nicely for me. Gauge is perfect and wire is stout.

Pretty much what it says it is...

This is a very commodity grade item so quality is really not a factor. But this was a great value!

This is pretty much your standard 16 gauge 2 wire landscape 12V wire at a good price. Ill be doing two 50 foot runs from a centrally mounted transformer, and there wont be much of a voltage drop, so 16 gauge wire will be fine and easy to work with. It appears to be all copper as advertised and Id expect it to hold up well. Definitely less expensive than the big box stores, but just as good.

Overall this looks exactly what I bought from big blue and time will tell if the outer rubber is just as strong but it I expect to be great for years to come.

Review for: HONDERSON 16/2 Low Voltage Landscape cable, direct burial Do the math! When it comes to outdoor, 12v landscape lights, you need to properly size the cable for the circuit. To do that, you take the number of lights you want to have on one circuit, and multiply by the number of watts. Nowadays, a typical LED type, 12 v light is in the 3 to 5 watt range. This is solid copper (the good stuff) 16 gauge cable, so it can handle up to 13 amps (which is about 1,500 watts!) but voltage does drop over distance. So this could easily handle one of the outdoor lighting kits or if you just want to add some more lights. (Old style, incandescent lights are a different story) 100% pure copper, direct burial, cant get much better than that, especially at this price

Good quality
