Best Place to get 22 gauge wire and disconnects?

Commercial arcade games generally do not use the full insulated ones.

Cheapest site I have found for bulk wire. 

I got strippers at radio shack yesterday, work amazing, I used it to strip 22 gauge solid, 24 stranded (although you cannot strip a lot at once with them) and used them to strip the outer cover off CAT6 cable.

$20 in the store, worth every penny - save yourself the headache, and get good ones  http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3932546.  They claim to work for 10-24 gauge.  I think it would work for even smaller solid wire, stranded 24 is probably the limit in my experience.

I got a knock version of those a few months ago.  The knock-offs kinda work, but they cut the wire as often as stripping.  Pay the extra few bucks and get the good ones!

I've actually got one of those things and feel like I either need to sit down with a manual or watch a demonstration video.  Guess you can't idiot proof everything.   :lol

100' isn't exactly bulk. But I guess they do have one 1000' roll of green. But it's $47 shipped. You can get a 1000' roll from Empire for $39 shipped.
