Not as slick as the $43 deal that was posted recently, which went out of stock in no time. $50.76 is still an incredible deal for both 10/2 and 12/2 Romex, 50' each, considering the 50' 12/2 alone runs at about that price at big box home improvement stores.

For those of you who are not sure what 10/2 is used for - it is for oven, AC, water heater, heat pump...

12/2 is typically used for 20 amp circuit and 10/2 is rated for 30 amp circuit.
As I understand it, (not an electrician, don't do electrical work based on my information, or an AI written web article), new 220v recepticales must have a neutral, 220v loads through disconnects or straight from the panel are ok so long as the load does not require a neutral. So a 30A range or a dryer must have 10/3 w grd, where a water heater, mini split or resistance heater MAY be ok with 10/2 w grd. if it does not also include a 120v. load. The important takeaway is to KNOW what the requirements of the circuit are and if you don't, hire a professional that does. Don't be a hack, especially when it comes to electrical work.
Long run, voltage drop

Quote from jpd_f550 :
For safety, if any smaller-gauge /2 wire is to be used on a 220V circuit, the white wire (neutral) must be marked (I use black electrical tape) at all terminations to indicate that a non-traditionally-colored wire is being used as a "hot" conductor.
220v doesn't use the neutral. If you need a neutral, you need to use 4 wire.

Quote from TodayOnly :
so could you run 2 x 12/2 lines (youd have an extra ground?) to one receptacle?
Electrically it would work, but you'd want to label the wires. If you get a permit, some inspectors may frown.

what in the world would you use 10/2 for? The highest rated receptacle (wall outlet) is 20 Amps (which is 12 gauge wire). All 30+ Amp receptacles are usually multi phase (il.e 10/3).

You could have a 30a 120v circuit where you expect to use multiple devices that pull more than 20a total.

Example:
A workshop with a 12a saw and a 10a shop vac that get used at the same time.

Are either/both of these overkill for recessed lights wiring?

With ground. Ex: 12/2 is actually 3 wires including ground.

The price breaks down to:
$18.45 for the 12/2 50ft
$32.30 for the 10/2 50ft

Is it possible to return 1 of the 2-bundle items on Amazon, and keep the other pro-rated at the discounted bundle price?

Rv 30a receptacle for one.

They are 110, not 220

Absolutely. Light circuits typically only need 14/2 (14/3 if you plan on having three way switching). In bathrooms you can share the GFCI circuit with the lights for a single bathroom, and that would require 12/2. So the 12/2 could be useful if you're doing the recessed lighting in a bathroom.

240v Mini splits don't need the neutral wire. Wrap the second hot to label it.
