Sorry, about the messy first post. the forums were not letting me use the links i was using.

I can tell you what not to buy, those ring terminals they sell at auto parts places that look like this

they suck to solder, it's what i used cause i'm inpatient. You have to get the solder in from the wire side and it's a bish.

As long as you use this style

you should be ok, don't forget the heat shrink tubing!

and ANL fuse holders are pretty

you might want to "tin" the bare wire to get a better connection. tinning is just coating the wire in solder.

I use stinger products, certainly not the cheapest but there stuff is good. There is cheaper alternatives that are equally as good. As far as ring terminals go I use solid copper lugs, a blow torch and some solder and your in buisness. I don't personally care for crimping ring terminals, especially when I am using 0 gauge wire.

I don't think the ones in the first picture are hard to use, but without a blow torch and solder you may want to stick with a crimp style.

They arent that bad, it's just easier to use the second style. The first ones have a lip at the base and it's kind of hard to tell if you got it soldered all the way. And yeah, i use a propane torch and a pair of vice grips since most the time i am by myself when i do this stuff.
