: What kind of wire do i hook up an i pac to an happ 8 way joystick with happ buttons?
: whats the different in gauges?!?!
Wire is made in standard widths (gauge) - the electrical wires in your house are probably 14 or 16 AWG and the wires on a printer cable are around 24 gauge (ie the larger the number, the thinner the wire and vice versa).
I use 18 gauge solid wire for my interchangeable cp's - many people use much thinner, but wire is relatively cheap and if you never have to fix a bad splice or solder, it is definately worth it.
