Designing a Better Battery Cable

Anyone having to check the specific gravity of each cell in each battery, or adding distilled water or sulphuric acid to each cell in each battery, has encountered the tangled web the corporate cable creates.

In contrast, notice the custom-cut cables in these photos. The connections to the cables are direct, easy to identify, inspect, and easy to work around.

Pertaining to a solitary 12v battery, there is little to consider since it requires no series or parallel connections.

Cells intrinsic in the solitary 12v battery are all equal dimensions, a uniformity which can be equalized more-so than two 6 volt or six 2 volt batteries in series via cabling.

However if the same 12v battery were comprised with two 6 volt or six 2 volt batteries, long-term consideration of the quality and placement of the series connection cables are a variable worthy of prioritization.

Consider the ill-effect where each cable that connects from one battery to the next are all different thicknesses and lengths, what would be the effect?

Both will become vulnerable to either a short-circuit and energy-loss.

Direct cable connections from one terminal to the next allows for quicker transference of power with the least amount of heat loss (resistance).

Can we make the connections even better using tailored lengths of cabling?

Due to excess cable length, problems are created just as the detrimental effect of utilizing different sizes of cabling (whether it be at the battery bank or the distance from the battery bank to the end-user device, hub, or appliance).
