You can use a welding supply store. Instead of the crimp style connectors they will have a beefier style lug body(set screw) type with an enclosed cover jacket.
My local stores only sell a minimum of 25' but yours might have scraps?
True soft copper stranded wire made to take abuse,twisting,rolling,vibration and anything you can throw at it in a battery connection situation.
Kind of like spend the money up front and never worry about it again or question what you have in your mind every time you look at your alternator gauge for starting or while on the road?
I tend to oversize thing for piece in my mind.
for example I ran 3-wire 12-gauge extension cords for all of my 12v wiring which left me with a spare wire if there ever was a problem and any 120 I pulled a spare extension cord as well?
Anything buried in a wall,ceiling has a spare not because I question what I did but because if there ever is a problem I have a backup until I can find the problem.
I don't expect a problem and all wire through metal penetrations are surrounded with old water hose on some and others are sleeved in rubber tubing for 6-8' ?
But that is my perspective and how I built?
