    Great video thanks my friend. I guess I'm old school on this. I was told never solder battery cables just crimp them. I put one in a Petercar sleeper closet there was a plastic grommet. I put the hole in it and ran my wires out red to the battery and ground to the frame in one of the extra holes not far away plenty of slack like you said for the movement of the cab and bunk worked out great. Thanks for the great video my friend keep up the great work

  • @richardmarshall7741

    Should use hever ga. Wire and crimp or clamp connector s to handle the heat and amperage you will receive to maintain your proper voltage with the least amount of stran on the battery. I used 0-cable had the ends crimped on at the parts store and a 30 Amp automotive bracker in the pos. Battery cable in for years no trouble

    I find it works best to hold the end in vice feed the sodder in the brass Part keep it hot then push the cable into it.then take a heavy duty. Punch and. Punch it hard that locks it tight . I have used just a heavy Dot . Punch you can't pull them out

    Something strange just happened! I was literally just listening to that Someday Baby song at the beginning of your video and have been for the last few days (random Pandora song). Also I've been trying to figure out how to wire something like this in the bed of my truck for the past few days. Just thought that was odd and cool. Good day Sir

    Should give a list of what tools and parts needed fuze size ect the fuse holder don't look like it would be big enough to run microwave or anything that much of a draw I put a 300 amp circuit breaker in for my fuse and it trips after running microwave for about 1 min same inverter and the circuit breaker is for that inverter same brand to not sure why it trips it works fine with fan or lower drawing things and if looking for large fuses I found radio shack and any radio install places carry fuse block and large fuses the connector are gold and seem to hold up well in elements

    I have a new battery setup. 2 cell sets and it seems like I can't get enough juice out of my inverter. I plugged the positive and negative at opposite ends of 1 cell. Kept dieing (batteries are brand new) I put the positive and negative on complete opposites of both cells and still not enough juice. What am I doing wrong? It worked just fine with absolutely no problems before I replaced the batteries. Afterwards I can't get my crock pot cooking anymore...
