I'll offer these to ytou guys first, -Interested in a set of Cast Copper Terminal ends ? They're kind of fancy, 100% Tinned Copper. Best ones I can find and been looking at them for a few years. Making a high power battery harness for the truck. I'm going to need to power a small cabin back in the woods for a short time and really don't want to leave or haul a generator around...so....

Deal is, I can get them, but I have to purchase a box of 5 Neg and 5 Pos unless I can find a distributor to work with me, -I have to sort of become Joe distributor whether I like it or not, and if I want them lol. Not looking to make money, - just get rid of the extra for what ever they cost me. The base part looks just like that. The connectors I recieve are going to be modified, by me. The threaded stub and cable nut and bolt are going to be replace w/Silicone Bronze (#651) which are highly conductive 98% #7 (hardness) copper to take some torque. Good stuff, you can actually Mig weld Silicon Bronze.

You get what's in the Pic, Left side /Right side. Orange 2/0 openings on the double crimp and/or solder barrels barrels. You can do either, but for 0 conductive loss, the double crimp is best. These are Polarity specific. Instead of orange at the front of the clamp, one will be flagged/marked in red (POS) and the other Marked in Black (Neg). They also come with (not pictured) threaded on caps for the ends. Those are brass and will except another batter clamp if desired. Those are also Red and Black. Here's the basic pic, without what comes with, -



They're also UL aproved UNLESS you solder. If you solder to them (not advised, but you can) , then you need some kind of cable support. That's only if want them Military Spec. You won't get nothing like this at ANY stereo shop lol.

Guess what, I believe they're only going to be 10 bucks apiece from the supplier.

So yea, I may have extra.

Also, - I'll have 1/0 cable reducers made up of tinned copper. So you can run 1/0. I crimp and have a solder station, could make you a cable with your wire. Not using welding cable this time, corrosion can wick too quickly thru that cable in an outside environment, in as little as 6 years. So I'm using OFC Tinned 5500 strand 400 amp max stuff. But if you want to make a cable, I 'll use what ever you want.

I may be interested. The gears are slowly turning with ideas
