Connecting Two Lengths of 0/1?

Maybe a ring terminal on each end and then a bolt through the rings. You would protect the bolt of course.

A fuse will add resistance, sure you can just place a piece of wire in between but it'll look kind of dumb.

Soldering 1/0 wires takes hella long time and you'll need a pretty powerful soldering gun to heat up all that copper. Crimping it with a 1/0 butt connector would be the easiest provided that he has an impact crimper or a big vise and some DIY knowledge.

Goes alot quicker when you use the right tool, like a torch.

The best way is to quit being cheap and buy the right length of wire.

don't solder. butt connector, fuse or braided splice. If you simply can not buy more wire

Idk why I didn't think of this but a split bolt connector would probably work great if you happen to have some around you. They are probably quite a bit more expensive than one the Stinger (brass) couplers but you could find some in the maintenence shop @ your work place. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

The big ones I've seen are made from copper so that solves the resistance issue (if there ever was one)

I'm not sure what awg split bolt to use with what awg wire but a little research would reveal.

Funny thing is I have a couple 2/0awg split bolts in my toolbox that I have never found a use for...
