cdb770,
They were all 4/0 AWG, but they had 5/16" openings - I believe that the 1/4" is too small for the battery, controller, FNR switch and motor terminals.
The 4 gauge cable cost me about $32, but I already had the 'battery to battery' cables. If I had it to do over again, I would have used 2/0 AWG, in case I wanted to upgrade further later. I believe the cost of the 2/0 AWG cable was around $60.
