First off I'm not that smart as I believe it was RJsfishin that pointed me to this when I first started to messing around setting up my solar.
Yes its copper clad aluminum but at some point you have to say enough is enough and deal with a little voltage loss. I started out using 12ga solar cable for my portable panels and found it not fun to deal with due to it being stiff as well as having 2 loose wires getting tangled in everything,I used this wire when I mounted my panels to the trailer.
I started to get the parts together as I still want 200 watts portable for winter camping to go along with the 200 watts on the roof and prices for 50 foot of all copper wire is quite expensive and since the 200 watts on the roof with "high lose 12ga wire" run to the tune of 40 feet keeps my battery's up just fine I figured that this 10ga wire will be great. I find with 200 watts on the roof I am charged up by noon and not using near what my panels bring in and this is with running the heater at 60 degrees during the night. I have decided to hold off on a couple more panels as the more I use the 200 watts I have the more I think I don't need anymore.
