Default Air pump power quick connects w/ jumper cable

Thought I'd share how I wired up my portable air pump (for airing up tires).

It's a 16 foot, 8 gauge jumper cable that I cut 1 foot from one of the ends.

Then I crimped on 8 gauge power connectors.

This gives me the ability to run my air pump AND jumper cables, without carrying extra stuff. 2 for 1!

Those are nice heavy connectors. I have been looking at some to wire in permanent jumper cables in the front since my batteries are in the back

I also have a pair in 2-4 gauge that I’ll use to wire my winch. They click together nicely but aren’t a bear to get apart.

That is good to know. I found a pair also for 0 gauge, which is what I will use for the jumpers. My electrical system has lots of juice and that is what I am using for cable

I used 0 gauge for my battery and ground cables, but really? 0 gauge jumper cables? Dude, what are you trying to jump start, an aircraft carrier? lol

Well, not quite aircraft. But on occasion I need to start diesels. Not semis but large motorhome and smaller

Got it. Then I can see why you would want the 0 gauge.
