What's up everybody, it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out these jumper cables from Deka, they're going to be two gauge and 24 feet long. Let's check them out. It comes with a carrying case and that's pretty nice to keep them all in one place. I know that I have jumper cables in the back of my car that don't have a case, and they kind of sprawl out and take over whatever area you put them in. So it's nice that you can coil them up and put them in this case.
The one thing I will say though is I wouldn't use this handle. You can see it's already starting to come off and that's just us carrying it around today. So I'd be careful with that handle, otherwise though the case does feel fine. So you can at least keep it together and carry it by that. Opening up the case we can take a better look at the cables themselves.
The gauge means they're pretty thick so they feel heavy duty. They got a really strong snap to them. You have to apply quite a bit of pressure to open them up, so that's good, that means they're going to last. You don't want them being loose that means they're going to be easy to come off the towers. They're also color-coded, you can see the red's going to be positive and the black's going to be negative.
The only thing I will say is these aren't covered up. I usually like when there's some kind of cover on that section, just so they last longer, but otherwise I really like them. Now it's time to hook 'em up, see how they work. Just come up here to the battery. Remember our positive, and then our negative, and do the same thing on our other truck.
We have 24 feet and that's going to be plenty to go from side to side. Like you can see these batteries aren't on the same side. So you do have to go a little bit further to get them hooked up, but plenty of room still. You still have more jumper cables to use, so you shouldn't run into any issues of length. The cables are going to be 100% copper. You can kind of see what I'm talking about right here. And that plus the two gauge thickness of the cables it's going to be really reliable. It's going to help, that gauge is going to help get that power to the battery to jump it way quicker and more efficiently. And since the cables are bigger and heavier they're gonna last you a lot longer too. Overall it's just a good idea to have these in your vehicle with you cause you never know when you're going to need them to help you out or help somebody else out. And these, the way they're built, are going to last you a very long time. Well, that does it. Thanks for hanging out and hope this helped..

Professional service booster cables are made with copper conductors. Cable insulation protects against oil, grease, and abrasion. Color-coded, tangle-free dual cables are specifically designed for flexibility and easy handling.After sorting through the jumper cables on other online vendors and in the big box stores, I finally realized that ALL large gauge cables from China are copper plated (clad as they like to call them) aluminum. Most of the packages don't even mention copper. Not only do they have a much higher resistance to current flow, they also fail after only a couple of years due to the propensity for aluminum to stress harden and fracture from flexing. There were some quality USA sets online, but they all were more than $100 higher. This is an excellent set, and the springs in the clamps make a really tight connection. Some people will require both hands to attach them. Great price and super fast ship. The weight will tell you a lot. This set weighs 14lb 14 oz., an aluminum set of a larger gauge and same length weighs 8lb 12 oz. You can always look at the cut ends of the wire where it is attached to the clamp and you see the white/silver specks where there is no plating on the cut. I am keeping my inexpensive "copper clad" China set to loan out to friends and neighbors.
This is a very heavy duty pair of booster cables, could not have been any more happier. Customer service was very professional and nice and did a great job in letting me know that these were in stock.
Probably a good safety measure for long distance travel. One tradeoff is that this cable set is somewhat heavy if overall trip weight is concerned but you can't have everything. Seems like it would deploy out okay in cold weather.
Exactly as described. 100% copper conductors as described. Fast shipping and the price was right!
If you're a professional service business and need some jumper cables these are both far the best bang for the buck.
These jumper cables are expensive and worth every penny. They are probably too heavy for women to work with. I'm an old guy and they are heavy for me to work with. They are long enough to connect from behind the vehicle (rather than in front or behind the vehicle).
Love these cables, they are “Very” heavy duty. The clamps are also very strong and clamp securely. I wouldn’t change a thing with the cables. That being said, the carrying bag (in my opinion) could have been constructed a bit “beefier”. It will work for now, but I envision it will tear or crack in cold weather down the road. STILL, these cables are GREAT and I would Highly recommend them!
Perfect jumper cables! Good price.
Outstanding super heavy duty 24-foot long jumper cables, with 100% copper, 2-gauge wire. I learned a lesson recently, the hard way that the cheap, light weight jumper cables cannot be counted on. Luckily another camper had a set with real heavy copper wire cables, which worked immediately. For those that have cables that weigh less than 5-pounds or those cigarette lighter connection jumper toys, I suggest throwing them out and getting something that you can count on. These weigh close to 15-pounds, going by my bathroom scale. I am extremely pleased to find another impressive product still made in the USA, of USA components, which is an extremely rare event in 2015. I am certain that my family will still own these cables in 100+ years, if by chance cars are still around.
The only negative thing that I can say this product is that I fear they may walk off, if I do not keep careful track of them. Anyone who picks up this set and needs to use it in an emergency will definitely want a set of their own. The clamps are perfect for making a solid connection. For the record, I have not actually used them in an emergency yet, but with this product, it is straightforward to judge the quality by holding it in your hands. For those buying a pair only for a car, 2-gauge is overkill and you do not “need” a set this nice, but I now have two sets of these cables, so never again will need to wonder if cheap jumper cables will function. I am also thinking of buying a third set as a gift this December.
This is my first purchase through e-trailer. I shopped around roughly 6-years ago, for several on-line items, found one place that seemed to offer the best deals and basically depended solely on them for the few things that I buy through the web each year. I noticed last month that my normal go-to store listed high prices for jumper cables and on top of that, most cables received inferior ratings, so I shopped around. E-trailer offered the best deal that I could find, on the best affordable cables that I was able to locate. The next cheapest retailer was $20 more, when shipping was added. I learned a second lesson this summer- to no longer buy products blindly from an outfit, which years ago offered the best prices.
Some folks close to my age may remember back when cables like this were rough half the price, 40+ years ago. Those days are history, but thankfully, nice jumper cables are still available. I regret not buying these when I was young. Friends should not let friends buy junk tools that need to be depended on in an emergency!
Very impressed with these cables. After years of having basic, aluminum wired, economy cables, I decided to get real cables for my new-to-me F-350 Powerstroke. The cheap cables were just good enough to work on a Corolla, or lawn tractor, but when the time comes to light the 7.3, I wanted the real thing. I went with the 24 foot length so that I could help someone parked behind my longbed crew-cab if needed.
These things are heirlooms. They weigh about 15 lbs and are American made. These are certainly the last pair that I will ever need.
These are on my list of practical,"guy gifts", for my nephews and a buddy that has a 16 year old boy with his first truck.
These jumper cables came quick and were well packaged. This isn't even an exaggeration, This website has helped me with not only receiving amazing products that are well made, they also take their time with helping customers on returning products if that ever comes to be your situation. Which in my case it was, i got back the item that was the correct size and went about my day with no problems.
High quality 100% copper cables. Not the cheaper knockoff with copper coated aluminum.
These are a nice upgrade, to replace my 25 year old cables (4 gauge 20 ft) that have the insulation crumbling off. Same type of clamps with strong springs that work well. And made in the US. Very happy
Have only used twice with zero problems ,but quality is top notch.. Would be a 5 if I used more.
Cables were all copper as described and good quality clamps
These cables are a little bit longer than what I wanted, but the extra length will come in handy for those situations when you NEED the extra length! Excellent quality, heavy, 100% copper wire....these puppies won't let you down !!
Really a superior product, highly recom mended!
Clamps have good grip solid copper wire good set of cables
Excellent seller. Quality product. Prompt shipping. Thank you.
Good quality cables I would recommend to anyone
Very happy with the cables and the service I received. When booster cables are needed you want the ones which will perform the best. These are them.
Don't know how the service could be any better....shipped the same day I ordered and received it as expected. Great job and keep up the great service!
Exceptional service on a professional quality product
Super fast shipping .product was exactly as described. Happy customer!!!
