ace hardware has 1\0 wire & ring terminlas, but they are copper and they arent exactally the best ones to use. they are quite soft and you bend and break them eaisly. the wire they sell is the same stuff you get from weldingsupply.com - all copper with strands.

they look like that. you might need to dremel the closed side off to poke the wire thru a bit to get a better crimp... maybe solder them in place. but they are quite soft, so id advise gettong the onese from knukonceptz for like $.45 a piece. they are much denser and will be much stronger.

alright cool, maybe ill check out ace. but your right the 1/0 connecters from knu are only like 1.50 each probably worth it anyways. thanks bro
