How about use a buss bar on the stud and attach you lugs to the other end of the buss bar?

I ordered a book called "How to scam people online" two months ago. It still hasn't arrived yet.

Then a 2x4 stud is holding the box instead of only the drywall. Outlets must be in a box.

Her body tensed and quivered as she felt wave after wave surge through her body. I probably should of told her about the new electric fence.

PRAYER FOR BOB The pastor asked if anyone in the congregation would like to express praise for answered prayers……….Brenda stood and walked to the podium. She said, “I have a praise. Two months ago, my husband, Bob, had a terrible bicycle wreck and his scrotum was...

Just received 16 230 AH EVE cells. Docan Tech with Jenny Wu. Here are some pics; I will post more info after I unpack all of them and begin testing

I have lived on boats on and off for 30 years. Most noise on a sail boat when in a crowded anchorage or marina is from fools not securing their halyards and poorly secured sails and not securing the dishes in the galley . Yes wind through the rigging can be loud when it really pipes up...

Solar power with wind back-up. Warning! do not attempt to use when temperature is below 32 degrees F.

I believe the Parent company for Bluetti is PowerOak a Chinese company, https://www.poweroak.com/company-profile/

From the Calb manual: "Power module or battery shall be operated in accordance with relevant instructions; 1) After clamping, each battery group should be fixed into the power module properly with the terminals upward clamped .Placing the battery on its side is not recommended , installing the...

I have not seen an example on this forum of a lifepo4 cell or battery bursting or exploding into fire. What I have seen is bad wiring and system construction practices starting fires.

I store my mustard upside down in the frig. I have had no catastrophic failures.

$80,000, is just for the motor. From the article: "Selecting a battery pack will tack on another €79,800 to 239,400 (US$85,550 to 256,650), depending upon capacity." I prefer a trolling motor and a 100ah Lifepo4.

This is heat shrink on 1 1/2" wide buss bars

Must be a shortage in China. I checked all the solder joints in the power supply.
