I don't know why I didn't think of this before but I've found a source for multi-colored 22 gauge stranded wire... Hack up a JAMMA harness. I just got 2 HAPP harnesses off of eBay for $30, and there's a guy selling 10 (!!!) of them for $48 right now... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3275681569&category=13718 I know it's not really cheap but if you want to get a LOT of different wire colors, there isn't really much choice unless you want to buy a 500 or 1000 foot spool of multi conductor wire for like $300. My Happ harness is 5 feet long and has 46 wires. That's 230 feet of wire. There's 29 unique colors. Here's the breakdown... solid color: black (10) red (5) blue (3) green (2) brown (2) color/stripe: blue/tan brown/black brown/blue brown/green brown/white green/tan green/yellow orange/blue orange/green orange/white pink/black red/black red/white red/yellow white white/black white/brown white/orange white/purple white/red white/yellow yellow yellow/black yellow/white |

You know you could just use all one color of wire ;) |

Yes you could use one wire, but it gets really confusing when making your adapters for jamma or wiring your control panel if you make a mistake. Good idea about the jamma harness. I too wish there was a cheaper way. |

That seems quite expensive. Can't you just buy a printer cable or something? Or actually, just buy the cable used in it by the foot? I just bought 5 meters of 36 x 22 AWG wire. 5 feet of that cable would cost 7 euro (and then I didn't even shop around) . |
