    That's where I got the battery cables. Last choice because it's across town.
  • Plus suggest cleaning your battery terminals and periodically spraying them with Battery Terminal Protector. Adding shrink tubing can also help.
  • Looks like a wire gauge of 22-16. They would be red color if insulated.
    Measue your stud size. Looks to be larger then norm. It appears to be 1/2 inch.
  • Do a search by STUD SIZE and then WIRE SIZE.

    If the stud dimension is 3/8", as it appears, and if the wire is 14-16 gauge, do a search for:

    3/8" stud 16 gauge ring connectors

    not so much in Canada.

    they may carry some, though.

    went looking for a pair of 18" 1/0 gauge pre-made (with eyelet lugs) battery cables a couple of months ago, hit every auto parts store in town, and they all only had 12" lengths pre-made.
    we are not as well served up here in many respects, as you folks are down south. :B
  • Home Depot, Home Hardware, Fastenal, Lowes, Rona, Acklands Grainger, Westburne, and Walmart maybe?
    Any electrical supply shop should have them.
