battery terminal

[b00sted 1]

alright so i just received my xs power d3100 battery...

now how am i supposed to connect 4 1/0 gauge wires to it ??? do they make special terminals that hold 4 1/0 gauge wires or do i have to make my own ??

you can use scews and washers and lock washers!

or better yet make some buss bars!

and I can't seem to find a pic of my nice buss bars. they are simply a piece of 1/4" aluminium with 4 tapped holes drilled in them and one cleanance hole for the main screw to screw into the battery terminal!

bolts, longer bolts. Or you could get some nice terminals made if you want to spend a little cash.
