My Hankzor 80A JBD BMS have 2 x 10 AWG wires. There is a hole for a third wire to solder. I am 99.9% sure I will destroy those BMS if I solder (poor skill) so I can either leave them as is or bolt a third wire to them. Pics show how one looks with an 8 AWG wire added. I couldn't get a good crimp on 3 x 10 AWG (too big for some, too small for others) but very solid with 2 x 10 AWG and an 8 AWG crimped in a 25mm2 lug using a 16mm2 crimp die.
Asking because the ampacity charts show 10 AWG is only ok for 30A (enclosed space in ammo boxes) so I need another wire. It is all 200degC rated silicone sheath but I dont want any heat build up because the ammo boxes are plastic.
I had to dremel the corner off the lug on the C- side due to the metal plate the BMS MOSFETS are soldered to interfering.
Heat shrink not heat shrunk yet so it looks worse than it is.
