I only use the heavy 3"inch barb Tinsley wire and cut out that light wire anywhere it existed as i hate it with a passion.. tears the hands off ya, difficult to work etc.

Last time at Co-op asked for a roll of heavy and they gave me the same heavy gauge and cheaper alternative 2lite on the sticker it says ¨COSTS HALF AS MUCH AND LAST TWICE AS LONG´

Well not sure how long it lasts but i got caught out at it this evening doing a bit of fencing in the rain, i didnt have a second man to roll out with the crowbar so i use the twisting the hammer anticlockwise and lift method.. well didnt the cheap canvas like material break and it cost me the guts of an hour rolling it along in the muck by the timber lugs in the dark,gloves all sh**e... would have given E30 extra for the tinsley if i had it.. they have strong strong green cloth/canvas handle.

Anyone use this 2lite brand ?
