Battery Cable Recommendations
So the time has come to replace the battery cables on my new to me 2008 RXV. Doing some searching around the inter webs I have seen a whole bunch of different ones out there.
ProFrom Kingzilla https://www.tntcartparts.com/proform...12v-batteries/ Modz 2gauge/4 gauge Madjax Cheaper Ebay Listing. What should I be looking for in these cables? First time ever having to replace them in a golf cart. |

Re: Battery Cable Recommendations
Remember you need a complete set.
This is for 4-12v batteries... 3 cables for the batteries. Main Positive. Main Negative. Solenoid to Controller B+. |

Re: Battery Cable Recommendations
Do you have a link to a complete set that you would recommend? All the sets I see are just the 3 for the batteries. I also see all different gauges available. Does it matter what gauge I get?

Re: Battery Cable Recommendations
2 gauge welding cable crimped and soldered. Most sellers should know the proper lengths for your model of cart.

Re: Battery Cable Recommendations
I've purchased a $ 22 crimp tool from Amazon, some quality 2ga cable/shoes and made my own. Perfect length of each cable, much cheaper.

Re: Battery Cable Recommendations
I like tinned copper but both work well. I also like custom length for a clean look like OJO has. I also like to use silicone dielectric compound to minimize corrosion.

Re: Battery Cable Recommendations
Basically a light coating around the exposed metal of the connections.
