What gauge wire is used on the battery connection? I would like to change out the connectors with anderson plugs and need to know which size.

Without cutting one of the wires it's difficult to be sure. It appears to be a 16 gauge or slightly larger. I don't believe the wire is actually a 14 gauge; but the insulation gives it the appearance of something just larger than 16.

I use a relatively low gauge but am out of town so can't say accurately. Mine is NOT the heavy "round" wire.

The Battery Tenders that I have purchased have a couple wiring harnesses included. The first set has alligator clips and the second connect permanently to the battery posts. The opposite end of the harnesses have a polarized plug that connects to the Tender so you can't get it backwards. Just connect whichever harness you choose to the battery and the other end to the Tender and plug the tender in to a 120V outlet. Very easy and virtually fool proof.Hope this answers your question!

If you are handy, (or know someone who is), this is standard 14 gauge stranded wire. Someone with electrical knowledge and access to a radio shack can probably figure out how to run connectors from the unit to the battery. I am not sure if Verizon can help you with this or not. This is there unit and I would advise you ask them before attempting repairs. GOOD LUCK!

If battery is at least 5 volts and gauge does not respond when connected then gauge is bad. My recollection is, there is nothing to adjust or set up on these. Just the two wires.Max 30V so don't connect to wall outlet! (duh, these are DC anyway).I'd test by finger-pressing the stripped ends of the leads directly on the tips of the 9V battery.A regular 12V car battery would also have contacts available for testing, in most cars.

I used an 8 gauge wire and it worked fine for me. Just make sure that it is actually 8 gauge of wire, a lot of the time wire gauge is falsely advertised.

I've got the same gauge. same problem. I keep my batteries charged but the needle stays in the white until I run the cart. Then it goes down into the green. Don't know what that means or what the red means. I looked up the company on the net but couldn't find this guage listed. Amazon should contact this seller and discontinue selling this item. Like you, know instructions were included.

Not sure. Right voltage, and exceeds amperage capacity. From pics on other sites, the connector looks like it fits. But the only way to know for sure is to try it. If not, you could wire the connector from the old battery if you still have it.

Have someone who knows wiring help you. Basically, you will connect the wires directly to your battery (or a fuse, if you wish) with the appropriate connector soldered on. one on the Red wire and one on the black. The connector looks like and "O" with a spot for the wire to be either crimped or soldered on.

The battery is 3 bound together AA's. ~3" x 2.5" (just a guesstimate) JST: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JST_connector This one is just a normal 2-pin + and - connector, I have no idea what gauge, amps, or volts it is, but this battery fit perfectly and has outlasted the original! Good luck to u!

I long ago terminated the wiring in Anderson connectors. But from what I remember, it was 16 gauge or so.

I used 12 gauge wire from Advance auto as I already had enough on hand. Since the pump itself has smaller 16 gauge lead wires on it that is a little overkill . The pump does not draw much current (amps ) so 14 gauge wire would work safely as well. Do not use the smaller 22 /24 gauge speaker wire or such crap like the moron that previously owned my boat as it is unsafe and not suitable.

Since this is a bada** battery, I would suggest upgrading power and ground wires to, at least, 4 gauge, if not, bigger

I used them to replace the works in a Neuton Lawn Mower battery. I just took out the old ones and put the new ones using the clips from the old ones. I did not need wire connectors but I guess you could get them at the hardware store.

Here, check this out. 8 gauge and 4 gauge are correct, depending on the distance the amplifier is from the battery. The closer it will be, the less resistance created, thus you can use smaller wire. Also, like others said, the terminals are 8ga on the amp, but you can also use adapters to go from 4ga wire to 8ga terminals. Stinger makes some nice terminals like this that I am using on my setup.http://www.crutchfield.com/S-81IQYmtv6S3/learn/learningcenter/car/cable_gauge_chart.html

This connector is for changing from one plug format to another. If that is what you want to do I can't see why you couldn't use this in a connection to a boat battery. This isn't meant to be hooked to the battery itself. There are other connectors with eyelets for bolting to the battery or alligator type clips to connect to the battery terminals

I used standard 14 gauge house wire from the panel to the controller and from the controller to the battery. This is ok, because there isn't alot of amps (raw power) being pushed from the panel. With 12v systems, the more raw power (amps) being used, the thicker the wire needed. You can even use regular copper twist wire, just don't go smaller then the wire the panel uses.. which I think is either 14 or 16 gauge.
