I have worked a lot with both.
Even though copper-coated aluminum can be soldered, it has a fatal flaw as far as I'm concerned.
Vibrate the wires or cables enough and they become brittle. El Snappo.
Bite the price bullet and go for of the real stuff copper. OFC supposed to mean Oxygen Free copper. Yet another Herb Tarlek buzzword.
The best protected thick cable I have encountered is diesel locomotive cable. Rope stranded double thick tin plated and insulation tough enough.
I get mine through an online accessible surplus seller called SKYCRAFT in Florida.
