New Flat Wire Great for RV 12 Volt Applications

This flat speaker wire can also be used for 12 volt RV applications like an alarm system or low voltage lighting, Oh, it can also power your speakers. It has peel-and-stick backing and is only 1mm thick (that’s not M&M’s thick but millimeters thick). They say you can paint or wallpaper over it. You can also run this wire under the carpet without the noticible buldge you get with other types of wire. Available in 16 foot and 25 foot bubble packs or 100' bulk rolls.

Please be aware that unless this wire has the "UL rating" listed, then it has not been subjected to standardized testing for any purpose beyond that of speaker wire. It is curious to note that the website or manufacturer has mouseprint below the product that states:

The following is made in lieu of all warranties, expressed or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for purpose: Seller's and manufacturer's only obligation shall be to replace such quantity of the product proved to be defective. Before using, user shall determine the suitability of the product for its intended use, and user assumes all risk and liability whatsoever in connection therewith. NEITHER SELLER NOR MANUFACTURER SHALL BE LIABLE EITHER IN TORT OR IN CONTRACT FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE, DIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL, ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT.

Always use wire that is properly rated for its intended use. Also make certain thatthe maximum ampere rating for the wire you select matches its intended use. You may not be able to electricute yourself with 12 volts, but it is possible to start a fire.
