How do you gauge your busbars for your battery packs? They come in thicknesses from just over a millimeter to a few mm. Some are aluminum, most are copper. They can be either naked or nickel-plated, bare or with heat shrink. Some are solid, others are laminated. I ordered some 1" x 1/8" C100 copper flat bar to make my own, but wonder if that was necessary.
