what gauge is the wire?

Outside diameter on the positive is 3 mmThe negative is 2.75 mm. I find it to be plenty as I use it on vans and Land Rover

How long is the cable?

Hi, The cable is approx 400mm from each terminal loop to the plug. Hope this helps

Does this now come with the latest 'comfort' connector?

It fits : MXS 5.0 & XS 0.8. Also fits the extension lead. Not sure what you mean by comfort connector?

Do you connect the - lead to the battery post if the battery is still in the car ?

Yes. Connect both leads to the battery permanantly and plug the charger into it as and when required. Works well if you have garden equipement with electric start, just put one of these on each machine and you can swap the charger about during the winter to keep them all maintained. I give them a week each from time to time. That way the smart charger goes through its full cycle till all the steps have been lit and the battery is on maintenance charge, then move to the next machine.
