Hi Mike.

Thanks for taking time to write such an informative post.

I guess I shouldn't trust tables that may *possibly* be based upon
unreliable data. I'll refer to the table you linked to for future
reference on wire gauge. And I'll re-read your post again.

So much to learn......

Don, best of luck with your 100W spot light!

Neil.
