4 Gauge Battery Cable, 4AWG 24 Inch/ 2 Foot Positive or Negative Wire Cables with Terminals for Marine,RV,Car,Truck

It's a cable..... it's for the battery......what else ? It's built well....... but it's a cable. It does what it does.

Like most used lawn mowers, mine was in sad shape. The wiring had exposed/corroded ends and the lugs were pretty chewed up. The wire seen is actually copper (much to my surprise, I was expecting CCA). I ended up clipping off the lugs and using my own to get a tighter fit on the parts, but the cables themselves worked great.

These cables would be perfect, except that the holes are too small on the positive cable. Most, if not all positive bolt on terminals have a 5/16" post, and the negative is 1/4" This is so that you cannot hook it up backwards, and believe me you do NOT want to risk doing that. Fortunately the cure here is simple, drill out the positive hole so that it will fit the 5/16" post. If not for this defect, I would have given the cables 5 stars, they are well made. When connecting cables, you should always double check, I have seen posts that were 1/4" for both, and that allows you too do it backwards! A lot of cars are set up so that the cables won't reach to the wrong side, but some batteries are made with terminals reversed. That's because some cars have switched the way the battery has to be installed. You will also notice that the posts on batteries are different size, for the same reason. The negative post is always smaller.I still recommend these cables, just be aware you will probably need to drill out the hole on the positive cable.

Wires seem good -- I would like to cut into them and verify it really is 100% copper, and not cheap CCA. But the construction, and the lugs seem good quality. My only complaint (and - 1 stars), is they put red heat shrink on the black conductor. That sends mixed messages. Obviously, its a black wire--and I can see that. But my greatest fear is wiring something in wrong polarity. So putting red anywhere on a black wire is a no-no. I'll probably cover over the red with black heat shrink. But I really shouldn't have too. They should put red on red wires, and black (or green is ok) on black wires.

Using for secondary battery on Jeep. Been using for a few months now, have not encountered any issues. Good value.

Nicely constructed 4 gauge battery cables. They use copper plated terminals that are securely crimped and then covered with heat shrink. Not quite sure about their white and green color choices on the heat shrink but that won't effect performance.The PVC insulation seems to be good quality and should hold up well in the extreme environment of a vehicle.Everything is sealed up so I can't say for sure they're actually using 100% copper wire or the true diameter but they feel to be the correct weight for a 4 gauge pure copper wire. They're actually fairly heavy for their size.Overall it's a nice set of cables if you want to save yourself the hassle of making your own.

The ends on these cables are very well terminated. They have heat shrink to keep out corrosion. Terminals are nice and thick, and should not bend much. Overall the quality of these cables is as good as any I have used, and I have used many cables for Solar PV charging The wires are marked as 4awg on the insulation, and the weight is appropriate for copper wire of that gauge. They are indeed 2 ft long as the description says. There was nothing about these cables that I didn't like. I am Very Happy I got them.

These aren't generic battery cables: their vinyl jackets are stamped with the company brand. I dunno, that just surprised me; I was expecting less. The lugs are appropriately heavy, unplated copper, so be aware of that if corrosion might be an issue in your application. The shrink wrap is not marine grade, and does not seal out water from getting to the wires. This isn't a statement of quality, just of proper application.If these look like they'll meet your needs, I can't find a reason to suggest you look any further.
