Thanks for the idea LOL I have a gold plating setup and might try plating my terminals. I'll be using wire with homemade copper connections again. I hate cleaning connections and corrosion, just might be worth plating them. Though I think gold went up ALLOT since last time I bought plating solution, so maybe not cost worthy now?
Also, durring my absence from the site and lack of doing anything for so long, I forgot about 3 deep cycles wired up not being used for so many months. Funny thing, 2 of the store bought cable ends were actaully ate off the battery! All my homemade ends from copper tubbing were fine, just corroded a bit and I just wired brushed them. I think the store bought ones must have been cheap metal that was copper plated?? I think they came on the cables, I don't remember buying anything like that or installing them like that myself.. nothing to lose
Spelin and tpying are my strong points, not electronics.[ Parent ]
