Questions & Answers

Should I get a thicker gauge of these to run in parallel between two 12v RV marine batteries on my travel trailer or can I use these in parallel with them?

There is no right or wrong answer it depends on how much power your RV draws. But in general, I would go with a 2 AWG or 4 AWG

Would it be possible for both ends to have 5/16 lugs? Is it possible to crimp all the ?

You will not receive both 5/16" on both sides of the terminal, but give us a call after you purchase, and we will gladly send you the third

What is the gauge of the strands in each cable and how many are there? Do you have a stiff or flexible object?

My understanding is that there were 100 strands of wiring, although I have already used it. The wire is flexible because it is fine. This program was simple to use for me. Powering my downriggers was the reason I installed it. As of yet, there have been no issues.

This would be suitable for a small riding mower, wouldn't it?

That's what we mean by extra heavy-duty. It worked on an ATV big enough to carry me

Twin batteries are possible with this model
5/5

As if by magic, this was all A couple of weeks ago we bought a new Airstream trailer and wanted to do a little boondocking at a nearby campsite that does not offer full hookups. So I purchased an extra battery and used the InstallGear 5 AWG cables to twine the batteries. I had no problems with the new configuration. As a result, our power supply was nearly doubled and we had enough power to go camping for three full days. As part of my research, I verified that the installation had been performed The best place to get a tutorial on how to install it correctly was on YouTube.

I am very happy with the cables and with the customer service
5/5

A pre-wired cable can be found here We will prepare and ship your items for you, so you can expect a fast delivery. The quality of their work is excellent They have no other options than to contact the seller, and they are very helpful, even though they have no choice. For my application, 8awg cables would have been sufficient, but sellers wanted 2-awg cables These 5AWG cables cost 3 times as much as the 6AWG cables, so I decided to get them. I'm very There are no problems with them at all. They seem to be 8 or 10 gauge and they're well assembled with good crimps and good lugs. I'm sure I'll add this seller to my favorites list!".

This item is rated 5 out of 5 I love it
5/5

A 3000 watt inverter will use four of these cables. I connected them for the first time and they worked perfectly. Ordering these again would be a good idea. I appreciate it! I agree - I am MrNetTek.

Wires for battery racks or other power needs are ideal for this cable
5/5

An auxiliary fuse block was installed with this kit. I installed a 50 amp fuse on the power line, and the kit powers up my hooptie truck with no problem! I love the construction and the wiring!.

This is the design for serial batteries! The cables are great, but you should be aware that these are meant to be put in series, not parallel, with your batteries
4/5

One end of the cable (especially red cable) has a small eye, while the other end has a larger eye. A small eye and GND terminal connect to each other. If you use a terminal cap, the small eye will not fit on a standard positive terminal screw. That's all you need to remember. As far as cables go, they Flexibility is very important.

Inverter applications are perfect for this material
5/5

It was necessary for me to purchase cables to connect a 1500/3000 watt inverter directly to a battery bank. I found these to be quite suitable for my application as they have a 5 Ga wire size that is just right, are flexible with a soft, almost silicone sheathing (insulation), and are fitted with shrink tubing that will keep them sealed well. I haven't installed them yet, but so far I have seen no problems. As a result, the package arrived within the 2-day Prime shipping window without damage and I give it a 5 star rating.

Cables of excellent quality
5/5

It is a super nice cable. As I am using a dual battery set, I can't tell you exactly what I'm using. I have my RV up. There was only one thing I had to do, which was cutting the heat shrink back ever so slightly in order to get the wingnut to engage fully on the The process is straightforward, and I would prefer having too much protection to not having The cables are excellent. I am very satisfied with them. As well as being very flexible, these cables offer good shock resistance. A bendable material that easily fits into place. They are highly recommended.

If the weather is cold, it can move freely
5/5

Wires like this really appeal to me. You know how it is when it gets cold and the plastic hardens, and it is difficult to move wires around? The free-moving nature of these allows them to move freely even in low temperatures. This is my favorite and is a breeze to work with especially when it's cold outside.
