I have ordered two jk-pb2a16s-15p BMSs. The manual is quite light on info. Until I get all my batteries I want to drive it at very close to the 150A. There appear to be two M6 bolts for each input and output. I am assuming when running at max current I will need to use both bolts but haven't been able to find any info. Would splitting my 50mm cable in to two 25mm cables using lugs via a post like the image below would be acceptable? ie. 50mm cable to post with lug. Then two 25mm cables from post to the BMS.

That's basically what I did with my JK B2A20S20P, as it comes with 2 cables per side already.

Who can answer that? 🤔

Consider it an adventure, hence the details shared. Track it as she goes.

At least with those nice big identifying names on the side the Houtis will be able to recognise the vessel as Chinese and will hopefully leave it alone.

I thought most ships were still going around the Cape of Good Hope?
