Out of the (?) of soldered battery lugs I have made, the number 0 Zero pops up when it comes to cable conductor to lug degradation. This goes way back to when JFK was in office.
Too bad genuinedealz does not offer soldering at a premium price.
A few companies offer LEAD (not tin) plated battery lugs. Takes a painter's mask and goggles to solder lead coated terminals, but that is exactly how I thwarted terminal failures because of group 65 batteries in Ford diesel rigs. The lugs came from Quickcable.
I made a set of nasty-jawed leads for my voltmeter. Steel with crocodile teeth. It's easier to gnaw through crud and grime on a frame rail.
