Just wondered what wire size(the bare wire stapled to the playfield) is ok for playfield lamps on Early SS machines. I think 18 awg was standard but will 22 awg be ok as a sub? I’m talking about the power braid that runs along the playfield.

Quoted from Quench:A friend of mine gave me a roll of this but I haven't had the chance to try it yet:

18 gauge braided tinned copper wire 250Ft spool

I saw this, but when I read the reviews someone mentioned it was aluminum coated and would not take solder.
The picture wire that takes solder ain't so bad. I measured the resistance on a 12 foot piece and it was only 0.1 ohm.
