2/0 Cable and crimping

The last few days we've been working on running our 2/0 cable between the batteries, controller, and motor. The lugs we use are Magnalugs from Quickcable. These are heavy duty lugs that allow the amperage to flow from the batteries to the controller then to the motor. We crimp these with an awesome "made in the USA" crimp too.

No matter how hard you pull... as Mr. Butler says "That joker's on there!!"

Now its time for Jesse to become the cable expert and cut, crimp, and heat shrink all the cable connections.

Always be careful of HIGH VOLTAGE! When batteries are strung in series their voltage INCREASES.
