Question:
Can you find out what gauge the hand held wires are? The 6 foot wires go to the battery, I want to add about 15 feet of wire. I would like to use the same size wire as the winch comes with. Thank you very much.

The wires of the # BDW15008 look to be 10 gauge wire. You can tell by looking at the color of the insulation on the ring terminals. The yellow ring terminals are for 10-12 gauge wire and the wires appear to be filling out the terminals completely which would indicate 10 gauge wire.
We sell 10 gauge wire by the foot at part # 10-1-1.
