im building a diy battery setup for my rv, ive already ordered 4 eve 280ah cells and the overkill solar 120a bms will recommends on his sight, once i get the cells from alibaba [if alls well] i plan to order 4 more to make an 8s 12v system so needless to say ill be changing this around from 4s to 8s at some point so for that fact i ordered bolt on type connectors which will allow expansion down the road, ive watched several vids and read threads on this forum about buying/wrestling with crimp tools and good crimps/bad crimps kind of comments and these bolt on seem easier/reusable and cheaper overall... am i missing something? is crimpimg that much better? im still going to use the bolt on stuff sincei already got most of my bolt on connectors and circuit breakers, i even ordered the bolt on bms for the same reason.
