Hey guys. I am extending the wires of a cathode and am wondering if the wires are normal wiring? ie If I grab some red/black wire from the store can I use it to extend this? I apologize if this is a stupid question.

Thanks!

Thanks for that. But the cords have to fit in a very small space in tubing. So the connections wouldn't work.

Stranded is key too. The CCFL insulation (IIRC) is also high-temperature tolerant.

When i cut and lengthend the wires of my CC it wouldnt work if you held the wires next to each other. Seperate them and it worked.
