I just made my own with #2 welding cable, I already had large lug crimps 3' long it squeezes the hell out of the crimps.

yea but............. open one of those battery crimps when it's 4 months old and seperatethe strands of wire that were at the crimp point....

you wil note a large degree of oxidation at the point and angle where each
wire meets the other.....

I was on my phone this did not come across as a link, I thought you were just asking a question. Now on my computer it shows as a link guess you could be correct although its not really a sealed container (battery compartment). shall we say 6 of one 1/2 dozen of the other. Ill probably redo them before they go bad anyway.
