The charger does indeed use 4mm plugs. The ones that come with the MM system work if you have some spares. Don't get the regular ones from RadioShack as they are not coated and the spring is weak. Stick with ones from your LHS or similar design.

You don't "need" 12GA wires to charge. 14-16GA is perfectly fine (actually still overkill) for up to 15A charge rates as long as the wires are under 1 foot.
