I'm just getting started. I've used my solderless breadboard a few
times now, but for some reason last night I was having problems. For
some reason, I was getting no current. After debugging the circuit for
a while, I realized that the problem seemed to be the leads on my wires
weren't quite long enough to reach all the way down into the socket. I
stripped these wires myself (not that tedious when you are watching TV
or something) and I thought I made them long enough to reach down in but
not expose any metal above the socket. Apparently not, even though I
felt the friction fit. How long should they be? Is there a standard
length?

10mm should do it.
(Standard ?? thats mine)
