Longer coil lead

My local Repco has them Hanging up at the back of the shop.
Various Lengths.
I just tell them the lengths needed and they grab them off the rack.

That is what I remember at mine.

So it is hard to see why an individual owner would need a full roll. (Unless they have a mouse problem! - but in that case the reel wants to be in a steel box.)

I'm sure I have a full roll minus enough to replace the leads on my Series I.
Wasn't that expensive 16 odd years ago plus I couldn't find it anywhere else at the time, I do remember it wasn't super flexible. I'll have a look in the shed tonight.

They are usually the carbon core type which seem to have a finite life.
The old copper ones go on forever.

Especially if mishandled.

Found the HT lead in the shed if anyone needs some.
