For far more than you wanted to know about it, read http://www.omega.com/temperature/Z/pdf/z021-032.pdf . > Perhaps someone on the list has a source for this wire. Omega http://www.omega.com/ almost definitely has it, but you might not like the price. If you know anybody at a college or university with a mechanical engineering, physics, or chemistry department, they almost certainly have various spools of thermocouple wire knocking around. If you're too old to wander around the college inconspicuously, most college students can be bribed with nominal amounts of food and drink. :) A local industrial-controls shop may have thermocouple wire as well. Standard disclaimers apply; I don't get money or other consideration from any companies mentioned. Matt Roberds
