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.
