I have a Samlex 3012 inverter charger that is powered by 4 x 100 ah LIFEPo4 batteries. Each of the batteries is wired separately to a bus bar using 00 welding cable, this bus bar feeds another one tha...

LY that's true of everything from politics to wimmen.
But tell me of the last time you had to replace a properly soldered joint because the wire corroded beneath the crimp? learned the hard way living in salt air.
Same thing with house electrical and twist and tape down here.
Every time I show professional electricians good brand (Ideal) wire nuts and silicone grease they snap it up like a gator and a chicken.
Gets even better. Remove hardware from a new terminal that connects directly to a battery. Dip terminal in molten 100% lead. Tap off excess. Tou now have a terminal that will be 100% acid proof. Quick Terminal used to offer 100% lead but had to pull the line because of lead fumes when soldering. I use a CPAP mask and spare machine. Tin only slows down acid corrosion. Lead stops it cold. Lead cannot be used for terminal to wire soldering because of the much higher melt temp needed. It screws up the wire insulation.
