Current-induced domain-wall motion experiments in 27nm thick and 200–500nm wide Fe20Ni80 wires are reported. By imaging the domain-wall position after current injections, the mean wall velocities are determined. The initial velocity is found to be constant for pulse lengths between 2 and 25μs but decays after about ten injections. For samples with an increasing wire width the initial velocity is reduced.
