Source for Battery Interconnect Cables
Where's a good place to buy battery cables. I was going to treat my rejuvenated battery bank to new cables and add a bank selector switch. That adds up to 6. 30" 4awg with 3/8 lugs. Thanks

I like to make up my own cables. Shown here is the ANCOR MARINE GRADE QUALITY BRAND available from ebay sellers in 25-foot spools for around $50... Comes in all the different colors
All of my 4AWG cable connections use the inexpensive 8-ton Hand Crimper tool and appropriate ring terminals...
Everything I use is sized for proper equal lengths and is bolted together...
Cable ends are dressed properly using adhesive heat shrink tubing keeping everything away from the elements..
I also sometimes ID the important cabling with heat shrink markers using a KROY Cable Marker tool...
I use BLUE SEA BATTERY SWITCHES, BUS BARS, FUSE BLOCKS etc components with all my battery projects where ring terminals are used for the connections...
Everything is sealed against the weather and battery vent gases keeping all of the connections in great shape... I do the same with my FRAME GROUNDs as well...
Did it this for years in my working years so it just comes natural to do it now for all of my 12VDC Battery Projects..
You can find many pre-made battery cable sources on ebay...
