I'm building a 72v iLifePo4 pack using 24 78ah cells. The batteries can do a constant 2C discharge rate. Do my busbars need to accommodate 78amps of current or 156 (2x78). I saw on Overkill Solar that had busbars that would accommodate 100ah batteries with a 2c discharge rate but were pretty thin (2.5mm thick by 30mm wide, you can see them here: https://overkillsolar.com/product/short-bus-bar/) so I'm a little confused.

Any help would be appreciated. thanks
