@CobKits any idea on ship times right now? My tracking info has been in pre-shipment since early morning yesterday. Just trying to line up some other shipments and was curious.

Thanks!

Used 16 gauge stranded from lowes. Was a bit snug but worked
I used stranded (12 gauge speaker wire) on my first builds and it was a major pain in the ass trimming it to fit. I tried thermostat wire that I had lying around and it didn't work, the holder wouldn't grab the wire. I then bought 16 gauge speaker wire for the next build and the bjb holder wouldn't grab on to that either. So out of 4 different kinds of wire the 14-2 romex worked the best. I think 16 gauge solid would be ideal but that seems to be as rare as unicorn farts.

on citizen the anode is the temp measurement point. unless youre into soldering thermocouples its pretty involved
