Depends on what you're doing. Aluminum wires don't carry as much current as
the same size copper - probably not a big deal with small power items.
Don't know much about the fatigue ,etc. I wouldn't use aluminum in
construction or panels, but probably fine in low power CRAP like BLACK AND
DECKER!!! (Had to get that shot in there!)
