The official LOR forum by-laws require you to share the source, assuming it is a commercial source, and not a craigs list/garage sale/etc kind of source.

There are several threads re vampire sources, just do a search. I've not considered spt-3, but if the price is right, would go for it.

As far as likely sources for vampire plugs, some of the vendors i've been pricing for spt, and plugs are:

1000 bulbs

christstmas light show

creative displays (CDI)

action lighting

awc

holiday illumination

lightbulb emporium

skycraft

novelty lights

(I'm late for a meeting, sorry, so don't have time to post links..)

Oops my bad. I don't know what I was on when I went there in July but they are 500 ft rolls and the price is now $60. Big difference. Anyways is at electronics warehouse in riverside ca. Sorry for the let down if anyone else got excited.

Either way, some (most?) SPT3 wire has the same thickness insulation as SPT2 but just has a UV inhibitor in the insulation. However, some manufacturers actually have a thicker insulation on the SPT3 (0.060 vs 0.045). Therefore on a lot of the SPT3 wire SPT2 plugs will work.
