audiofanaticz Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Looks Great!! Any particular reason you switched to JL wire from Rockford Tony? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 4.2k 14.6k 104
snafu Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 I never did use Rockford wire for CE Auto Electric Supply. I do buy lots of things from Rockford, but not wire. The JL Wire has two distinct advantages for my business model: 1. It's tinned. This allows me to confidently sell it into the marine channel. 2. They offer 2 AWG, of which I sell nearly as much as 1/0 AWG - keep in mind that the majority of my customers are hot rodders. I've used it since I started CE Auto Electric Supply. I also used it in all of the projects in my 2nd book that required it. In my 20 plus years, it's the nicest I've used.

Kind of figured you had a good reason behind it just wasnt sure hence why I asked. I just remember watching some of your videos and you had rolls and rolls of RF wiring.

Chris Hammer Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Chris, we use a crimping press to assemble all of our cables. 4 AWG eyelets are double crimped, 2 AWG, and 1/0 AWG eyelets are triple crimped. These kinds of crimps are lifetime connections. Thanks for the quick response. I will probably be ordering from you sometime in the near future.

stevensracing06 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Do you only do custom kits or am I able to just order lengths of wire and eyelets etc. As if I wanted soldered instead of crimped so on and so forth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... 4 90
snafu Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Yes, I can make you anything you like. For example, you need a 15 foot length of 2 AWG power wire with a 1/4" eyelet on one end and a positive battery clamp on the other - no problem-o. Click on the banner in my sig and you'll be able to see what we offer. As for soldering, that is entirely up to you. I can tell you this, our crimping press makes the best crimps that I've ever seen. It'd be hard to improve on that. Quote Tony Candela - SMD Sales & Marketing Email me at [email protected] to learn about becoming an SMD Partner!
