As far as building my chaining cable it was simple. I used 24" of this zip wire it's almost like a twizzlers pull and peel. https://powerwerx.com/red-black-bonded-zip-cord Looks like the minimum that you can buy in 10ga is 25' for $35. I just used the extra from when I made the plug for my fridge. I ran 20' of it from the truck battery (fused with 15 amp fuse) to one of these mounted in the back of the rover.https://powerwerx.com/powerpole-connector-chassis-mount-8 Then on the ends of the cable you'll need https://powerwerx.com/anderson-powerpole-connectors-45amp-bonded These are the bonded ones where the red/black are stuck together, they also offer ones that aren't bonded.
Since you're already paying shipping I'd order some of these https://powerwerx.com/anderson-1331-powerpole-contact-pp30 for 12-14 ga wire and some of these https://powerwerx.com/anderson-1332-powerpole-contact-pp15 for 16-18 ga wire. With these contacts and Anderson plugs you have an easy way of connecting any wire from 18-10ga. The beauty of the Anderson plugs is the red/black housings are the same size and connect together, you just change the size of the contact based on what gauge wire you're using.
