25mm2 3 AWG DC Battery Cable 40CM Red With 8mm Ring Lugs Double Sided
DC Battery Cables for battery to battery or battery to inverter connections. Hydraulically crimped and insulated ring terminal lugs to minimise resistance and reduce the risk of a fire hazard.
These cables have pure copper cores compared to aluminium cores that do not have an efficient CCC (Current Carrying Capacity).
While aluminium core cables are more popular on solar panel connections due to safety reasons and allow the cable to burn off internally and prevent fires, copper cables are in favor of battery connections to minimize voltage loss and current restrictions.
Therefore it is critically important to have battery cables professionally crimped and adequately sized for the application. We at Livestainable will crimp the cables for you in the correct manner for your peace of mind.

This battery is a true AGM type not the cheaper hybride AGM (Enhanced Flooded Battery). It is the recommended large battery recommended by Centurion for gate motors. They need to be AGM so they can handle the high start current of the gate motor.
Have been using with water from a borehole with very high lime content. Now have no lime scale buildup in the kettle or the shower heads. Works well very happy
The Uni-T UT202A clamp meter is a top class electrical tester.The meter is easy to use, accurate and an excellent addition to any electrician's tool kit. I absolutely recommend buying it and I am very pleased that I bought it from Livesustainable. Their service is excellent.
Take a breath. I raised my irrigation pump about a meter off the ground. Constantly loosing prime, I check, rechecked and replaced the non-return valve on the inlet side. Online research pointed to the outlet siphoning out the prime due to the height. This vacuum breaker on the outlet side solved the problem 100% by allowing some air into the system, without draining the prime, as the water in the pipe dropped down to ground level, whenever the pump is switched off. No more priming issues.
