Spartan Power
Are you looking to upgrade the power system in your RV? Don’t forget your cables! Today we have Steve Kjeldgaard from Spartan Power. Steve tells us the secret behind how they make their Spartan Power cables so flexible.
“Regardless of what cable you go with, I believe that even when you get up to four gauge wire, our cables are really flexible because of the copper strands. We don’t use thick copper strands. We are actually using 30 gauge copper strands. In a small cable, the size of a number 2 pencil, you’re actually seeing close to about 420 copper strands inside. In our 4 gauge cables, you’re going to see closer to 2100 strands, and that’s actual individual copper strands. That will be more flexible because they’re just that much smaller and allow that bend where some of the other cables with thicker copper inside just won’t give you that.” – Steve Kjeldgaard, Spartan Power.
Kenny has Spartan Power cables in his RV, and their flexibility, as he says, is similar to a Twizzler. That’s even with the cable being a heavy gauge. Steve really lays out a lot of helpful information in this episode, including the difference between AC and DC power and why some cables need to be larger than others. We also talk about some of Spartan Cable’s other services, such as inverters, power monitors, batteries, and more. Spartan Power can help you construct a custom off-grid system for your RV. They can make custom cables that will fit your requirements, and their cables come with a lifetime crimp guarantee.
Customer Service
Customer service is a top priority to Steve and Spartan Power. As you will hear, Steve will take the time to help a customer, whether that be a $5 sale or $10k sale. He believes every customer is important and wants to be sure they are satisfied.
“It’s the same every time I pick up the phone whether it’s a 5 minute $5 sale or an hour-long $10,000 sale or swap that. I’ve had an hour-long $5 sale, and I’ve had a 5 minute $10000 sale. Regardless of what I pick up, we’re going to spend the time we need to talk to you and make sure that the answers you are looking for are presented in a way you actually understand. I’ve had many folks that say, “you’re the 3rd person I’ve talked to, and I finally actually understand, and I don’t feel like I have to go do more research,” and that’s just because we’re willing to take the time”- Steve Kjeldgaard Spartan Power.
