I'm building the 50 watt Plexi kit.
I'm at the "daisy chain the heater elements" step. I've used the green wire from the power transformer to connect and I'm really struggling to fit those wires in the holes, especially when there are two wires. Can I use the thinner green wire that is included in the kit? What gauge wire should be used to hook up the tube socket heater. What gauge is the green hookup wire included in the kit?

Typically you'll see 18 or 20AWG for heater wire and 20 or 22AWG for the rest of the wires.
