Where are you guys/gals getting your battery cables?

I'm looking to buy a zip cable for my battery charger but crazy exspensive , mainly because they'll only sale 25 ft minumum.
I only need 5 foot of 4 gauge.

Here's what I'm hoping to build for my battery charger.

    Looks neat and tidy, until the day you have to replace only one end of one side
    Or you get a battery problem and draw too much current and melt the poly vynl and short the two conductors together


    Everybody gave a lot of good info on where to get battery cables but I'm looking more of where to buy (((((( ZIP CORD ))))))) for a reasonable price ???

    Powerwerx is too exspensive for me and I don't necessarily need marine grade just good copper grade in a zip cord form.

    Yea , I understand your concerns about the positive and negative running along side one another , it's only going to be used for my battery charger and I'm always present while charging and plus everything is fused well and secured matched appropriately.


    Zip cord..
