Ordered a couple of cables Monday night, they were posted Tuesday morning and I got them Wednesday.

Thanks Garrick for the quick turnaround on a good piece of kit and for the bonus xmas cable as well.  :cup:

Cheers

About to place an order.

A 1m length to tether the Engel to the trailer when off the internal slide and out under the annex open to prying eyes, and another likely 5m length with a big loop on one end to allow full length use for (future) solar panels.

Has anyone using these for panels found that a 5m length is long enough to get them away from the tent/shadows etc? I will be connecting into the hitch-point Anderson plug, so they'll be offset a fair distance to start..

cheers.

The other thing to consider is how long is the electrical cable from the panel, no use making the security cable longer. Most I sell are 5m with the ocassional longer one. Order a 5m one and I will make it a generous 5m ;D

Haha, thats funny. Will do.

No panels as yet so just making assumptions. Your comment on what the majority purchase for that task is what I was after, so thank you. Will try and order tomorrow. Will make payment ASAP after receiving details; will require them by a trip departing Australia Day which I'm hoping you could hit.

Thanks for the reply.

I feel a bit guilty actually about getting any thing to be honest. It's a big prize to be voted no 1 by the team. I only saw POTY thread once I'd won. I'm sure you can find a good home for the cables GG, you do enough for the forum as it is. :cheers:

Order coming tonight mate. Will still order what I originally proposed (1m, + 5m) rather than forgoing the 1m cable for your bonus offer. But the bonus will be much appreciated!

Great cables Garrick.  We put them to the test in the salt air for a week (<20M from the waters edge) with no signs of any negative effects.  One of our brand new chains for the dog was rusting after just two days.  Secured our panel 24x7 and allowed us to eek out every ounce of sunshine without having to get up early.  Just had to remember to turn the panels around after sunset.   :cheers:

Great news, I am glad they worked out well. I have sourced a small amount of S/S coated cable and will test it out in the coming weeks before releasing it to the masses, thanks again to all who have ordered cables.

I have been able to source some plastic coated S/S wire rope from my suppliers and have updated the first page. As noted I will not carry too much stock but there have been some enquires for it, there may be some delays in getting the cable so please take this into consideration if ordering.

Thanks to all those who have purchased cables in the past and I hope they are working well in their intended jobs

Thanks Garrick,

I got my cables today. One SS 10m to tether the solar panels, one 1m to hang onto the fridge and a bonus 1m cable! I wasn't expecting the bonus cable, I thought that deal was probably finished by now. Awesome work, thanks Garrick.

To anyone thinking about buying some cables from Garrick, stop thinking, just get them. If you are thinking about it you obviously have a use for them, so support a myswag member and buy them now.

Thanks again Garrick

Got my cables for Solar panel, Fridge, kids bikes and a bonus cable today thanks Garrick.

Simple solution to our common issues and much nicer and lighter than carrying chain around with you when camping.
