I want to start experimenting with inductors but I don't want to buy a whole spool of actual magnet wire.</p>

This gives a good idea of how many amps you can push through different gauge wires</p>

Very thin insulation on those items.</p>

Any idea what the ampacity of this wire is or how to figure out the best wire to use?</p>

I had ordered this a couple of years ago, and the color of the core was silvery, indicating it was probably either tinned or the latter.</p>

If you're getting serious and starting to want longer lengths and more colors, it might be
time to make a purchase at a place specializing in that sort of things. I <a href="http://www.vitriol.com/images/tech/WireRack.jpg" rel="nofollow">bought mine at Digikey,</a> but you can probably get a good assortment of wire cheaper elsewhere.</p>
