   Pros: • AWG 10, 600V, 105C rated wire • Red and black conductors molded together “zip cord” • Molded SAE connector with weather boot looks quality • SAE polarity reverser included • What appears to be quality MC4 waterproof solar connectors on the other end Cons: • Initial insertion with other connectors was tight, with sleeve removal • Wire relatively thin compared to other solar cables • Wire rated at 600V vs 1500V for other cables This 15-foot SAE connector to a pair of MC4 water proof solar connectors appears well made. The wire itself has the red and black wires molded together as “zip cord” with only a short area where they are separate at the MC4 connectors. The wire is noticeably thinner than other 10 AWG cables I tested with (see photo). The reason they are thinner may be that this cable is rated at 600V whereas the other cable is rated at 1500V, so while they may both be 10 AWG the other cable may have thicker insulation. This cable is marked as 10 AWG, 600V and 105 C temperature. That should be sufficient for most solar applications though. I did try mating with another MC4 cable, and I’m glad I initially tested with that rather than an expensive solar panel. The initial insertion was a bit tight. When disconnecting (that definitely needed the MC4 tool) a contact sleeve came out of the female (the connector that actually looks like a male, with the red waterproof ring). This appears to have come out of the connector (see photo). I’m not completely certain it isn’t from the mating side, so will limit how many stars I take off. After noticing the sleeve come out of the connector I tested again and insertion was easier, more of what I expected. I did test basic continuity, and there is at least some continuity, so I’m not exactly sure what happened. I did use the other cable previously though, so I know it work properly. Even if the sleeve came out of that connector, was it because of problem with this cable? This is very concerning though, and I may just replace the connector to be safe, rather mitigating the whole purpose of getting a. pre-made cable.

   Great 10awg solar MC4 to SAE cables. Wire is less rigid than solar cable and build quality is great. This cable will be used for connecting into the solar connector on the side of my camper to deliver a solar charge to my battery. It comes with one reverse polarity adapter which is usually needed for my situation. The MC$ solar connectors connect and disconnect from a couple of different brand connectors I have with no issue.

   I use SAE connectors widely in my van build, so this conversion kit is perfect!
