Another option for a fresh cable is
having one of the online shops build
one to length for you. The good places
provide high quality cable, connectors and
use a solid, professional crimping machine.
You can usually get these with a good, goop
filled shrink tubing over the connections, too.
A couple extra bucks, but a time saver and
cheap insurance for your charging system.

I used some marine grade 2awg that I had from another project. I prefer to use soldered lugs instead of crimps. The solder provides some added corrosion prevention insurance. Most corrosion at the terminals is a result of the corrosive gasses produced through charging. Having the solder coat the wire provides an additional layer of corrosion prevention.
