.@HighTechLab Here’s one for you. The way Ruixu packages the cables that come with their batteries has an amphenol connector on one end and a ring terminal on the other. This assumes that the user will be connecting the batteries to a bus bar (their rack?). With these cables the user cannot daisy chain the batteries like you would other server rack batteries without a bus bar.
Maybe you could provide the customer with an option to purchase ( or replace the provided) pre-made cables with amphenol connectors on each end?
Dunno - just a thought.
Ruixu had the parallel cables on their Australian site for awhile but gone now. They are certainly available from Topband but the safe rating of the stack will be reduced compared to buss bar setup as the parallel cables I saw were the same 3-ish gauge cable.@HighTechLab Here’s one for you.

We are buying Amphenol connectors in bulk and will have custom cable options soon that not only accommodate the Ruixu batteries but also the PowerPro batteries. Now that we have the EG4 PowerPros in stock, we also are going to start offering an option to add a ring terminal to the factory cable assembly (that comes default raw on one end). This makes it more suitable for something like the Sol-Ark, for example. For now it's going to be on a per-request version - but our web developer is designing a custom cable designer for all of these options. I think it will be far better than the mess of cable options we have right now.@HighTechLab Here’s one for you.

Frankly, we try to avoid customers picking up in person as much as possible. We aren't in the best part of town and do our best to fly under the radar. Theft has been an issue a few times already and that has changed our stance on quite a few things.Remove the $200 "docking fee" so would be customers can come and pick up the things you sell for free.

Why don't you come up anymore as an eg4 distributor? Have you already/ are you going to stop carrying them?
I'm offended on your behalf. It seems your reputation here on diysolarforum.com should be enough.
Check both websites and you will find out?so I guess the next question would be can you sell the eg4 items for the same prices signature solar gets to advertise them for? or does signature get to undercut all other distributors?
based on his comments on other threads this may not give me my answer. Distributors have to honor minimum advertised prices on products, basically to be a distributor you can't advertise lower than list price. Just trying to figure out if eg4 is allowing ss to use lower advertised prices than other distributors (which would be pretty effed up imo) or if cc is just not willing to take the lower profit margin. (which may be reasonable considering their better customer service)Check both websites and you will find out?
Could you elaborate?Shipping!
