It is unforgiving -- utterly.
Taking a mill file to a battery "L-Pad" then to a terminal, to insure both a absolutely flat made a significant difference in terminal to L-Pad interface temperature. Getting the mounting pad flat on the Trace 4024 was challenging. They were concave. A use friend loaned me a mill cutter with a 1/2" arbol hole and will no small amount of effort I dressed the pads.
A vise, a large mill file or bast(a)rd if the surface is rough can really flatten the irregularities on a lug.
9,000 watts is a lot of energy...
