this may seem a simple question but strangely i have not been able to find a supplier of 2 single core wires joined next to each other (twin single core) on a spool.

anyone know of any suppliers ?

Erm think I used to get mine from B&Q

Try screwfix

Cheap bell wire from Maplin, B&Q et al or cheap speaker wire.

I get small (100m) amounts from CPC, but if you want lots (500m or so) try a firework company, several import the same wire as used on igniters from China.

i know its not reliable. but i got alot of it from a car-boot it is bell wire, and i got a massive reel of it for 50p there must be abbout 100m of it (iv had it for a while so i dont know how much is left) but il sell it for next to nothing if you want some. practually just the postage. or you can look at a car boot.
