Will this do the job? Battery cables...

[wizard]

We need to re-position the batteries and the selector switch. I could pay the electrics guy but i'd like to do the battery cables myself. This hydraulic gizmo costs an hour of his time and I can use it again and again - it's cheapish though - what do you think?

Why bother with either when you can buy both the cable (at various lengths) already with the ends on at Halfords, probably cheaper elsewhere at a good motorist shop.

They quote 110A so I am guessing they are only 16mm2 - a bit small I would think, especially for starting

I didn't say that! What's happening????

For the record, Mike recommended Hafords saying why bother with the crimping tool, I said "because I like doing the job properly myself"

Phew, glad I cleared that mess up
