Question with wire gauge

[caz345]

Im going to be using a 7.4 battery pack , my question is , is 26 gauge wire heavy enough to go from the battery pack >recharge port >sound board?
I just want to make sure it can carry the current ok, dont need to set anything on fire you know, lol.:-D

Yes, 26 gauge can candle 3 or 4 amps.

I work as a telecommunications cable repair tech, and we have some circuits that are in excess of 100 volts on 26 gauge copper. so a mere 7.4v i'm sure won't be an issue for this application ;)

Thanks guys, I wasn't concerned with the voltage, just the current, and the smaller gauge wire is more manageable so I wanted to wire the whole saber with that size but didn't want to have any problems. Sunrider, just checked out the pics from your saber you are truly insane! Very impressive.

I normally use 28 to 30 guage wire.
