Watch those amps champs!

Well after five years with electric propulsion I guess it was bound to happen. I was installing some new terminal connections for my helm mounted battery instrumentation project when a interconnect cable touched the terminal of the next battery. It was less than a second of contact but, lit up the space like a flashbulb. No major damage done except to the heavy duty cable lug which you can see here:

Got to respect what 200 DC amps can do!
