    I bought the wire stripper a while back and used the lever on the copper wire inside tv's. It seemed to work good. I'm still getting used to using the drill. I need to tighten some of the parts that seem to have loosened.



    It seems to me that with the smaller wire that it wouldn't be worth it to get the copper out because you loose the weight from the insulation on the wire. I go from .90 (insulated wire) to 2.70 ( number two copper). So you get about 3 time more in the price but how much weigh do you lose? I may have to do another experiment and share my results with the rest of the forum.
