i have an accelerometer sensor on a breakout board. i need to solder wires to it, and connect it to my circuit on a breadboard. i am looking for more flexible wires that would allow for easier movement of the sensor, than the standard solid wires used with breadboard wiring.

what kind of wire should i use for this connection between sensor and breadboard? what are your suggestions and where can i buy the wires?

thanks.
 
Any old stranded wire will do for wires smaller than 20AWG. For wires that are 16AWG or larger the insulation becomes thick enough to affect flexibility a lot and you also want to start looking for silicone insulation for flexibility
