Silicon insulated test cable by the roll?

Those of you who make up your own test leads, where do you buy your cable from? Am thinking of knocking up a R2 wander lead with 30 metres of 4.00mm on a home made roll/holder. Thing is; I can only find lengths limited to 10 metres. Since a kewtech ready-made item costs nearly £100 I'm sure I can make something up for less than half that and which is superior.

Comments welcome.

  • I'm thinking a straight forward wander lead simply for r2 testing on continuity scales and nothing more. Ordinary PVC conduit cable tends to tangle and snag very easily when wandering through furnished properties whereas something a little more flexible such as meter test lead is less prone to this.

    Alan,Thanks for the offer of the spare wander lead - I'll get back to you later.

    BTW - Anyone know how to pm on this board? I can't find any links.
