The purpose of this post is not to critize this product, it is meant to make others aware of what I found.
I am in the process of installing my newly delivered Rebel LiFePO4 12v 100ZH 1280WH Batteries. I am starting my build with two and expanding to four later this summer. I am making my own cables and the first issue I ran across is that the 8mm terminal studs are to short to accomodate two connections on one terminal stud. The unfortunate part is that I built cables to tie the batteries together before I found that I could not have two connections on one stud. So the loss is a few bucks in 1/0 welding cable, some copper lugs, the purchase of additional parts and the setback of time lost waiting on parts..
So my alternative to solve the problem is to use busbars for positive and negative connections. I hope this helps other that are looking at the purchase of these batteries.
On the bright side is that I contacted Rebel Batteries and Aric responded very quickly with a couple of alternative ways to connect the batteries.
