So there is no need to use 0.5A in any voltage drop calculator. Time is limited.
12g landscape wire would be ok for 50', if I use 5A in a voltage drop calculator

it yields .8v drop.
10g, 5A, 50' yields .5v drop.
It becomes a eco 101 lesson, how much does wire cost/availability
Would 3A be a better number to use?
12g, 3A, 50' 0.5v
10g, 3A, 50' 0.3v
