Just wondering if you gents are using battery bars or something else to build saddle packs. Thanks

I was a cheapo back in the day, I used brass strips! Worked fine for sport use

They won't heat up during use?

Naw they were thick brass strips

I used braid, I thought it was better than battery bars and thinner.

My theory was (taught in school) electrons flow on the outside of wire, and braid being made up of strands it must have been better than a solid bar.

we upcycled brass staples off corrugated cardboard boxes!

SubCs won't ever pump enough current to tax those brass strips.
