Funny... I walked in and they had my cables ready for me. The clerk said "You got these for $15? We charge a heck of a lot more... we find these to be good cables".

At a given volume wouldn't the CCA exhibit decreased skin effect due to having more copper overall although less as a percentage by volume?

So 6 vs 4 gauge.
"A standard set of jumper cables has a gauge rating of six. The smaller the gauge rating, the thicker the cables are. The thicker the cables are, the more effective they'll be....

As a comparison, Sam's Club has 20' 4 guage jumper cables in a case for $18.73. These are not in the store all year, based on what I've seen, but they are available now. Probably a pretty good deal...

I guess full copper cables would be just too expensive right now based on the price of copper. Glad you got Sam's to correct that...no one likes to be mislead.

Al has only about 60% of the conductivity of Cu at the same wire size. Also, CU has better fatigue resistance than Al and tensile strength. Of course, Cu costs nearly 3 times as much per pound.

You're not supposed to be using the cables to create a bridge from your weak battery from the good vehicle. The proper manner of using jumper cables is to let the donor vehicle's alternator charge...
