I always got it at home depot, but they probably do not have anything large enough to battery cable

How much do you need and what size cable? I collect it from work and have quite a bit, black and clear. Some of it even has a heat activated adhesive inside, works great for keeping the sheath from pulling back from the terminal.

Thanks for the online ideas Dave and Sean.
Thanks for the input everybody.
I am going to try the local NAPA store after work and see what they have.
I figure I need a couple of feet of it.

I have quite a bit too, red or black, adhesive lined, all the way up to 2" dia unshrunk. Make sure you get the adhesive lined stuff as it keeps the moisture out of the bare wires.

05-27-2009 09:08 AMTypical expanded vinyl heat shrink isn't likely to do the job well. The local place that makes up cabling for me uses a bonding rubber. It's fairly thick and chemical resistant. And it has the adhesive liner that bonds it. And from the looks of it, it shrinks more than the vinyl's 2:1.
