What is this wire for? Will it be good for extending car batteries on an RV, specifically?

The CCA makes it to where this is aluminum wire stranded that is wrapped in copper. It's a lot thicker but cheaper than the same load of wire made of solid or stranded copper. it's also quite flexible. It says it's Rated for 250A load @ 20' so you need to decide on the load you're trying to pull with this wire and the run of it as well.

Wire is made for car audio electrical upgrade and yes it will work for the rv

Well I got it for my freightliner semi to use to attach an extra battery and its flexible for below temperatures I say it works good it just doesn't have that hard thick cable wire that car batteries have like a wire hanger this is like speaker wire.

I'm using it for that purpose on my old Subaru. It comes with a small charge regulator to properly charge 12 volt batteries.

Yes you can with a few millamps lost due to distance. I am using with 15 foot of extension cord from battery tender on a 1990 Chevy Suburban that is used occasionally for towing in the summer. Sets the rest of the year unless my compact car is not in the shop. Works well for long term storage. Just Don,t forget to treat the gas properly for the vehicle if in long term storage.

This cord is used to charge my battery jumper. Not to keep your car memory.

It shouldn't make any difference whether a home or RV. If you have a patch panel with access to 240v youcan protect the entire RV or a single 120v circuit. If you're not sure what you're doing it's best to get an electricianto wire it for you.

I use it for a trailer with 12 batteries attached to it or you can use it plugged into a car. Works both ways as long as it gets 12v as input it will convert it for you.

I actually attached mine to my DC to AC inverter that is wired to my 12 volt battery. I soldered an "eye" type of connector on the end of the wires that come off the controller. I also attached the wires with the standard solar clips just like the ones provided in the kit that they provide. It was just for convenience to un-hook my system at the RV compartment for easy set-up and take down when traveling. One other item of note, put a 10 amp fuse both before and after the controller. This protects both the controller and the system.

Can't say what size but it is a pretty heavy wire. Has 7.5 amp fuse block and fits motorcycle batteries just fine.

The short answer is: A pair of alligator clips to connect the wires to the battery. If you or a friend have any mechanical ability at all, it is easy. You get 40' of wire that becomes 20' because you run two conductors, a positive and a negative. You will cut the desired length of wires to run from the panel to the controller. The wire remaining will be used to go from the controller to the battery. The terminals on the panel, the controller and the battery are clearly marked as to what goes where. (I used a piece of red tape to mark the hot (positive) wire at all ends. (the wires are all black.) This system is superb. We use two batteries and have all the power we need in our RV. (Lights, pump, tv, computers.) We are thrilled with it. (The price is unbelievable. $600 in RV stores) If I can be of any other help please don't hesitate to holler: Ivor ivorthomas316@aol.com

I bought mine to use with a dogbone adapter to plug into my 50 amp cord. I can't say if the female end of this cable will plug into the inlet on the RV. If you Google the part number, you should find several pictures and might be able to see the female end better. I also believe that you can call any RV store and ask for the parts department. They should be able to answer this.

This item plugs directly into a 110vac recepticul so I would have to say no. But if your just monitoring line fluctuations and polarity in RV parks this is for you.

We got these batteries for car remotes, not sure what else you can use it for.

I used it on my 6 volt house batteries in my motorhome. I have 4 and it works great.

i do not know, i used mine to connect to a marine battery and connect to trailer harness from my truck

I have it charging two deep cycle 6 volt battery's wired in series for 12 volts on my camper works great for that. I would think it will charge any 12 volt system, larger would just take longer.

If I understand it correctly, it"s kind of like a "Miracle Charge" you would put on your motorcycle or antique car, but this one, "a microprocessor-controller that constantly monitors the RV battery status and automatically selects one of four charging modes: Boost Mode - (14.4) to quickly bring the battery to 90 percent of full charge, Normal Mode - (13.6) safely completes the charge, Storage Mode - (13.2), automatically activates after 30 hours of non-use or Desulfation Mode - (14.4), for 15 minutes every 21 hours to prevent battery stratification and sulfation (the leading cause of battery failure)." I think it monitors the batteries, locates the lo battery and re-routes power from another battery. It's not really a battery chargers, but more of a routing station. My RV has 5 batteries and sometime certain batteries use more power than others and this helps keep them all charged ith in the same range. That is what the hi-lighted section refers to. Mine has worked very well. Dont buy the cae they try to sell with it. Its plastic and will disappear with a good kick. I used a chain of a cable with a lock. I hope this helps, but I could be totalyy wrong.

You would probably be okay with that gauge of wire for that short of a run. HOWEVER! Be sure to fuse the line in case it overloads or should happen to short to ground over time! I used #0 gauge wire for a 15 foot run to the back of a van and regular battery terminals to attach to the dual post battery.
