Reusing Old Jumper Cables

I was shocked to find that the jumper cables I had collected

from various yard sales had the same amount of copper as a 12 gauge

cable. The thick rubber coating had tricked me into thinking that

these cables might be more like a #6 or #8 gauge battery cable.

Whatever...I hacked up some jumpers so that I could trickle charge and

desulfate a bunch of heavy duty batteries in parallel.
