The cable I took off was about 0.330" +/- including the insulation.
Wow, around 30% smaller...no wonder.

It's the cross sectional area that's important. Ignoring the insulation thickness and using the formula area=pi x Rsquared yields an area of .196sq in for the .5" dia cable and .085sq in for the .330" cable. That's more like a 130% increase!
