Skullz Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I am using a pair of these from my alt to the battery, while not cheap they allow me to re use them if the need ever arises. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Copper-mechanical-lug-connector-extruded-style-14-4-0-/310477784429?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=610142615813&hash=item4849eb056d 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkov Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I am using a pair of these from my alt to the battery, while not cheap they allow me to re use them if the need ever arises. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Copper-mechanical-lug-connector-extruded-style-14-4-0-/310477784429?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=610142615813&hash=item4849eb056d ding ding ding, one of the best reasons for using them, they are reusable. For us car audio guys seems like most of us are constantly changing something or another. I wish they were thinner but meh, I have a crimper and rolls of solder I use though 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

Skullz Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 They are the only mechanical wire lug i will ever use due to the fact that the set screw is so large and will not strip out like a car audio specific one would. EDIT: Make sure to tin your wire before ever using open and closed ended mechanical lugs. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundstream15 Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I use those, I only have 2, one on rear battery and one under the hood. I have no issue, I rather solder tho, but one thing that sucks about those is they take up more room on your battery post meaning gotta get longer posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillaCam Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 It's just something else that you'd have to check every so often to make sure it hasn't came lose.. No thanks and especially at the prices they want This right here. It would suck having to go through and tighten these every so often. And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

pioneerforlife Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 if you can afford them I would get them because they are reusable and pretty easy to use. if not, you can buy regular terminals and solder them. 2007 Ford Focus SES Hatchback Pioneer HU 4 Digital Designs 9515i's in a B pillar. 2 Soundstream XXX 15K's (running at 16 volts) Soundstream Mids/Highs in custom door panels (getting rebuilt soon) Soundstream TA2.160 and TA2.400 Sky High and KNU wiring 3 Banks of Maxwell caps Winston Lithium (not a fan) Bump4Life 250 Amp Alt. aka USAlternators Soundstream Focus and Avenger Build Log Instagram @p4linnovation YouTube: Team Blowin Loud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
