Anderson battery/jump lead connectors.

Not sure this really belongs in here, but .....

Found these on Fleabay and emailed the guy asking if he could do a similar kit, but using the 350amp connectors.

Got this reply:

Hi Nick
Yes we can do 350amp Jump lead sets - one set works out @ £21.75, p+p for one off would be £10.50, however if you place an order for 3/4 off we can reduce the cost: £20.00 per jump lead set + £10.50 for ist set plus £5.50 for each additional jump lead set.

So, the more I order, the cheaper it becomes due to the way he's quoting postage. I dare say, if I get a few more than 3 or 4 then he might come down in price even more.

What do you think, and, does anyone want a set?

me please sir ill have one :-)

I've got my jump leads set up on these fellas.

Alot easier on Defenders if you want to fit comfy seats.

A battery cut off switch is a good buy too

Nick make that 2 for me John will have a set for the 110.

Not ordered any yet (Only because I didn't get much response, other than from Paul, both on here and a couple of other forums !!).

I'm now thinking that 175 amp is the most common size, which will make them cheaper.

Will start reviewing agian in the next couple of days

Cheers dude

Any chance of some pics?

Cheers

Haven't got any pics, but here's a non Ebay link to one.

Sweet, i know what you mean!

Velly cheap compared to VWP's prices for just the connectors http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu/VWP-onlinestore/battconns/battconn.php#powerconn

175 rated plugs could get a bit warm with prolonged cranking - you can see cold cranking currents of 250A upwards on many diesel 4x4 engines, but given they'll take a 40mm2 cable (typically 250A+) I reckon there's room to spare.

ill be for some while ive got some monies....my cheap halfords set are kinda burnt out at either end....

I'm still not 100% sure what size we should be going for (hoping for some decent discount for bulk purchase).

All the ones I spotted at the 4x4 show semed to 175 amp, so that's what I based my change of mind on.

Whats the cranking amps on everyones batteries?

Mines no got ony.
I only have a '+' and a '-' thingy


(sorry)

Hi Nick

DId you ever get anywhere with these? if it starts up again let me know, my pajero lists 700 to 800 CCA.

Chris

Been looking at this again.

175 A seems to be the "normal" size, so I'll get chasing again now.

Ok Nick let me know how you get on, I will need the whole thing if your ordering including the battery lead and both halves of the plug.

Just in case any landys need a jump next year.

Chris

Hi Nick, how did you get on with these I now have an Anderson plug fitted ready.

Not good, can't seem to get much discount on the connectors of cables etc...

Not giving up though - just down on my list of priorities at the moment ... sorry.

Hi Nick was there any outcome on these, I now have a Disco D2 which has the leads and plug at the rear so I could do with a set of jump leads. AA Tony gets testy when I keep asking for a start, and as I might need a hand on the 2012 rally best I make it easier than last year,

I can probably sort a set of leads reasonably easy. What size connector do you have (number of amps ??).
I'll check on prices etc... again - but no-one really came up with a decent discount - but let's see what we can do.

I'm looking at knocking out a few sets of these cables. Looking at 3m 400Amp cables with 350Amp Plugs. I'm think im going to retail them at £25 plus postage but I think I'll be able to do £20 plus postage to rally guys. Was thinking about inter-vehicle cables as well (Anderson plug on both ends) which could be used as and extension for when you need a long set of leads £15 plus P&P. Planning to use 350Amp as that is HGV standard and saves me buying multiple sizes.

Anyone interested

Probably would be... Maybe even one of each...

1 of each for me too just so I don,t have to get to close to any of the Japanese members of the rally to give them a hand to get going.
