when I was boosting my wifes car last week (it was somewhere south of -22f; it got cold enough that my car was showing an out side temperature of "---"!!) the coating on one of the jumper clamp ends wholly popped off!
it made me chuckle;
I have one of those blue sets of jumper cables, they are hefty... but aside from their weight, always easy to use - this cannot be said about the lighter gauge jumper cables.

on a funny side note, I have had those those blue exterior extension chords snap on me.
