OK, so directly flattening / soldering / flattening the cable end

Rear flattened/soldered/flattened batt interconnects turned out well and are installed. Picked up 2 lengths of plastic 1 inch ID conduit as well. Continuing to plug away this afternoon...

Large garden hose :thumbup: It's flexible and you know it's water tight :thumbup: |
Ooooh. Garden hose is a good idea if you're using 2/0 gauge. It would be a little more saggy than the conduit, but you could work around that.

Duh, I was worried about the exhaust pipe when you mentioned conduit under the car. LOL :)
Cool Cables, lets hope they don't melt :) |
I know... I kept firing up the torches at the back of the car this afternoon, and every time I did I thought, "wait! gas fumes!" :)
I don't think the cables will melt. Unless I really misunderstand what's going on, the 4/0 is WAAY overkill. The internal wiring inside the motor itself is more like 2/0 size. That's what I'm more concerned about melting... In further "misunderstanding what's going on" news, today was the first time since the start of the project I mistakenly shorted out pack voltage. Freshly charged, too. !!!ZORCH!!! I vapourized the end of a 2/0 lug. :O |
That soldered cable end that turns into a lug is fantastic! Really, really good. Could you post up a tutorial so we don't all have to go through the learning curve please? :)
