CARTMAN 2 Gauge Jumper Cable 16 ft 800A

This 16-foot, 2-gauge jumper cable from Cartman provides strong starting power for larger vehicles and recreational rigs, offering heavy duty jumper cables 800 amp capability to tackle low-voltage situations and cold starts. It combines thicker conductor capacity and a carry bag to make roadside use more practical and less messy.

Key Points

The cable uses copper-clad aluminum (CCA) to balance conductivity and weight while delivering sufficient current for many heavy vehicles. Its thicker cross-section—more than 50% greater conductor area than a 4-gauge alternative—helps reduce voltage drop during cranking and keeps connection time shorter. The clamp design features an internal tongue for a secure double contact with battery terminals, which improves stability during jump starts. 🚗

Cables are insulated in TPR material that the manufacturer rates for low-temperature performance down to -13 F, so flexibility in cold weather is maintained and handling remains easier than many standard rubber jackets. A luxury carry bag is included to store the cables and clamps when not in use.

Usage Recommendations

For best results use these cables on full-size pickup trucks, large RVs, and heavier transport vehicles where standard thinner cables may struggle. Connect clamps to clean battery posts and ensure good metal-to-metal contact to improve current flow. When using in cold environments remember that battery performance degrades with temperature and a thicker conductor helps compensate by keeping voltage drop lower. ⚠️ Consider that while CCA offers weight benefits, pure copper cables will conduct slightly better in absolute terms according to material properties.

Handle the clamps with firm pressure to seat the patented inner tongue against the terminal and avoid loose connections while the starter is turning. Store the cables coiled in the supplied bag to prevent kinks and to keep clamps clean. Avoid exposing the cables to sharp edges or solvents that can damage the TPR jacket.
