I'm going to re-watch this and make a spreadsheet, lol.

[@Nocturnal2010]

🤣

[@HighVybeTribe]

How'd it turn out ?

[@joseluisruiz3789]

Thank you Dean for explaining this again. I don't understand why people still give this a thumbs down when you couldn't have explained it any easier then this. I'm going through this with my own channel that is also focused on Car Audio and I appreciate you alot for taking the time to make this. These dudes just don't understand the late ours of editing just to share information with everyone.

[@alexbrown8803]

I'm in A/V and this is what I needed. Thanks.

[@fuskeiro79]

I was goint to ask you about this topic in another video, glad that I found this video first. Thank you ! So helpful.

[@HawkFest]

Thank you very much! I was juggling with different sizes on eBay and trying to guess from a couple of other clips and losing my time as I don't want to spend a budget over a gamble (however educated can it be: on my part it was a validation)... Your clip is truly the most welcome, comprehensive/accessible... But most importantly, an essential must see for anyone who doesn't have such experience to guess without a chart. Thank you.

[@Chukijay]

I’m literally ordering this stuff NOW (from your store’s link so you get the affiliate credit). It’s like you read my mind. Thank you!

[@koalafan1576]

Thanks. I’m using 10 gage for my light bar. 1 red and 1 black. Knowing the 3/8” I bought will work for two 10 gage wires is great. I did also get. 1/2” so maybe I’ll need it one day but I might have to get a 1/4” also for individual 10 gage wires.

[@Conqueef-tadoor]

Dean, you should have re-iterated that you need a hot knife to cut this stuff or it will fray like crazy. A lot of people don't realize that.

[@jordanwasley5388]

Cut and singe with a lighter

[@jasonklemm8017]

Incredibly helpful video. Do you prefer to run RCAs through sleeving? I've got 3 pairs to run to the trunk area of a Scion tC, wondering if sleeving would be beneficial.

[@dna59]

You know things are serious when the hands come out for a video. Great helpful video.

[@APinTheAK]

Look this up wayyyy more than I’d like to admit. 🤣🤣🤣

[@samscharp3367]

Dude, thanks for making this video.

[@randyng-a-fook1695]

Good evening Dean. Please keep up the great work that you do on your videos. My question is this. What are the pros and cons of using braided sleeving compared to split wire loom and tesa tape, when running power cables, rca's and remote turn on power wires? Is it that it is recommended to run power cables in braided sleeving then slip it into split loom and then tesa tape it? Regards and thanks, Randy in Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean.

[@rickygore9334]

I'm hoping to create an ethernet snake with three cables inside. And I would prefer not to have to re-terminate the cables if possible. What size would you recommend for that? Not sure what gauge an ethernet cable would be considered. Just guessing from the video, I would say one cable is 8 gauge. I don't care about the color showing as my cables are black also.

[@randyng-a-fook1695]

Good day. What model Techflex sleeving are you using in the video? Please continue all your great work. Regards, Randy

[@BericBuilds]

Great video sir. Good format

[@Cab895]

Great video, I reference this all the time

[@csl750]

Thanks guys for this

[@randyrocha5846]

Video was really helpful. I'm thinking the paracord will be the main color, but it seems the Techflex goes on top, IT(techflex) becomes the Main color and the Paracord is the Highlight kinda.

[@koalafan1576]

So if I’m just running a red and a black wire for let’s say a light bar, the 3/8” is the right size?

[@seanmichael2777]

Was looking at this just yesterday 🥺😂

[@bobbybyrkett7751]

Dean also 3/4 for stinger 4000 6ch rca's

[@brijlal973]

I came here to know what length of a sleeve I need to buy in order to put them over cables of various sizes. The thicker the cable the shorter the sleeve becomes as it expands sideways. Can you tell me the combination (based on per meter of cable)

[@TheSFFV]

This was awesome! Do you guys loom only certain areas or over the entire run?

[@bobbybyrkett7751]

They do entire run

[@RidinDirtyTX]

Thank you for this!

[@rrsttt7505]

Do you run flex in an engine bay, or do you go to a plastic loom?

[@1411rammstein]

their vids show them use flex

[@aaronhouser3711]

Well Done!

[@eazy69ful]

for a 14g speaker wire will the 3/8 work?

[@MyBlowncobra]

Thanks Dean even though you answered this a few days ago...geez people..

[@Justme-jt1ef]

I thought primary wires were the spark plug wires and all other wires were secondary wires????

[@EidAgha]

Very helpful

[@eazy69ful]

which 1 do i use for 14g speaker wire?

[@erikmartin8383]

Would 6 strands of 14 ga work in a 1/2” sleeve?

[@CHEVYK10]

How do I keep my sleeves from unraveling when feeding wire through it?

[@haygood9]

Thanks 👍🏾

[@waterlover]

Great video

[@Hammerback0]

I use 4/0 power and ground, so.. I don't know what would fit that wire.

[@abdomination]

1 inch

[@christiandshatto7765]

1/2"👍🏻

[@joesshows6793]

Awesome

[@hggryrdchgc]

I have 2 awg power wire. What in hell you need 0 awg in a passenger car for?

[@BericBuilds]

More powaaaa

[@dylanandersen9318]

I was running 5k watts rms in my Camaro for a while, thought about going to 2/0 but the 1/0 was good enough.

[@mrmagic34]

What about nine wire ?

[@rz9708]

Speed wire or 9 wire is usually the size of 4 gauge wire so I use half inch on my speed wire.

[@mrmagic34]

@@rz9708 thank you

[@Deegan787]

Woopie

[@ngalloy8696]

😂3/8 Inc still the best

[@kevincortez6227]

[@loudelvis610]
