Is it possible to have enough lugs?

It never seems to fail. I buy extra lugs because I love DIY and I seem to go through them like there is no tomorrow.

Just recently I used one of my last 1/0 lugs even though I recently bought more.

I keep them tidy in separate bags for organization. Yet they seem to evaporate into thin air.

One of those mysteries I may never understand.
 
My biggest problem is to keep consolidating them into one place. Clear top organizers and write awg/hole size and see what I’ve got at a glance. Always thinking, oh well I’ll probably never need that size again and proven wrong in less than a year. Just about to start another trolling battery/whatever build. Son of a gun, no 6AWG 1/4”(6mm) for the bms. Selterm’s will be here in hours via Amazon prime. IMG_1362.jpeg
 
I justify the price break at 25 as being worth it even though I only need 5 for my current needs.

So far I think I will be able to get away with 4 awg or 2/0 for my build so for 1/4, 5/16, 3/8 that’s 6 different lugs I have in hand for the larger stuff. I don’t count the 18-10awg small ring lugs I buy at 50 a pop.
