Phillips Industries has introduced Clear-Vu battery jumper cables, which allow early detection of corrosion build-up. Maintaining electrical capacity is critical to maximizing the reliability of a vehicle, but with standard black and red battery cables, corrosion is hidden, silently robbing power from a trucks' electrical system.

Replacing OEM battery cables with Clear-Vu cables lets one see any corrosion developing from the inside. The heavy wall shrink tubing gives additional corrosion protection by stopping water and contaminants from entering the charging system. Clear-Vu battery cables are available in smoke and translucent red in both two- and three-lug configurations.
