Balance lead wire size on oferkill's 12v 4S 120A ?

Same question for the Overkill 8s - 100A BMS?
I need to order some 5/16" ring crimp terminals and those balance leads in the photos seem very small???
Thanks
 
I think they are 26awg. Under the tools section in the manual it states: "Wire strippers, capable of stripping 26 AWG, Klein Tools 11057 or similar (needed to strip the balance leads.)" Soooo.....

Everything you need to know is in the manual. RTFM. :)

The reason they are small is because they don't need to be bigger. They are only used to measure voltage and the balance current is tiny....I think 70ma's. I soldered my ring terminals. If crimping you can fold the wire over before crimping.
