BNTECHGO 16 Gauge Silicone Wire Kit 10 Color Each 5 ft Flexible 16 AWG Stranded Tinned Copper Wire

This is my review of Bntechgo’s Silicone Wire (30 gauge) I received 10 strands with each one being 10 feet (3 meters) in length for a total of 100 feet (30 meters) of wire. I use it in the lighting of bookshelf dioramas and small models, and it is perfect for my needs. It is tinned copper, and it is easy to strip off the coating (silicone rubber), plus the tinning of the copper wire makes it easy to solder. Do one simple thing first The wire strands come rolled up and secured with a Velcro strap. Remove the strap and carefully find the ends of the 10 strands, then gather them together and carefully unroll the wires. That way you will not have any tangles, and because these wires are so thin, tangles can be a real problem to deal with. In addition, I put a hook on the wall and draped the unrolled wires over it. That keeps them from getting tangled, and gives you easy access, when needed. I did not have a chance to check out its use in hot-and-cold environments; however, the coating is silicone, and that material is known for its ability to operate in extreme temperatures, high or low. One of my included photos shows a diorama that I made, but I did not like the lighting, so I redid it, using this wire and some LED’s. Good reliable wire.

Great simple wire very useful and cheap

Very good selection of colors. I'm restoring an antique radio and that allows me to label certain wiring paths uniquely. Extremely flexible, making it easy to thread a pathway through existing wiring with delicate, crumbly insulation. Strips easily, solders well.

Quality is fine and it met my needs. My issue was with the flexibility if the wires due to silicon. Was working on small items and really needed two hands just to handle the wires and ends vs a wire with normal plastic which would be less flexible.

Great wires if you need flexibility and have limited space in your enclosure. Lots of wires with different colors, very handy, Solid value pack.

This pack of wire had nearly every color that I needed for a project I was working on. The 16 AWG was true to size and had a nice sturdy jacket and strong copper strands. I used some for control wiring and some for a lighting circuit and everything worked great. My DIY golf cart build looks professional due to the high quality of these wires. They came packaged in a nice zippered pouch with a hook and loop cable tie which really bumps up their appearance factor. I'll be buying another package to keep on hand for future projects.

great idea and great product. Nice color coded assortment and in 10 ft lengths.

Okay quality. Stranded wire itself seems fine, the outer casing is too flexible and heavy for the size of wire causing it to be 'floppy'. Recommend using some outer sleeve depending on the application to protect these wires. Trying to pin this wire into connectors is very difficult because the wire folds over with any pushing force. Would consider another brand next time.
