There are somevery detailed and great threads over @ RCGroups in the batts section. the forum is more for planes, but same things apply. Most there were just using the bussbars. They seem to hold up well enough, but they don't draw the huge currents we do for the most part. There is one bar that is thinner, possibly acting as a fuse. Most leave the bars and sodler some copper wire to assist where needed. I'd post links, but that site is blocked from work :010: Search A123


Also, I thought I had read where someone did some testing, and the V drop w/ buss bars showed nominal decrease vs using batt bars. Ie, it really wasn't worth the trouble (which is quite a bit w/ the A123s)
