Actually, I had ordered the cable, because I was hoping for a pure white insulation with different cross sections to distinguish between plus and minus. This hope has not been fulfilled! My delivery (of Manax) contained a cable reel with two circular cross-sections and a (discreet) gray line on one side. Moreover, even after one meter continuous length specification is printed in black. It can be seen that the specified length is exceeded loosely (almost 32m). Because I desperately needed the cable, I have refrained from a complaint and arranged me with the delivery. The cable as 2x0,75mm² appear at first glance but a re-measurement results but then the promised 2x1,5mm². From here frequently mentioned smell I could not find anything.
