My 3D awareness let me down a couple of times when attaching lugs to the cable so wasted some cable and lugs, and I initially had the one coming out of the bottom of the circuit breaker straight, but the cable wouldn't bend enough when I attached the front plate (meaning it was below floor level) so I had to do a 90° one instead.

I'll shorten the ones to the battery when I'm sure I've got enough lugs to change them out.

When I do that I'll add some shrink insulation too. The shrink wrap I've got now is either too small or too big for these cables (the latter being for Li-ion drone batteries).

#homeStorageBatteries

Home storage batteries (and home charging of EVs) present a real threat to the public. It’s not just the threat of a fire that is near impossible to extinguish but the hugely toxic gasses that are produced.

This would be particularly deadly if a thermal runaway like Luton airport carpark fire were to happen in a carpark integral with a large shopping centre.

We have to embrace clean energy technology if we care for the planet but we are not quite there yet with safety despite the frantic virtue signalling of our politicians.

We need a properly engineered solution. Not a political one.
