Not sure that that means but.....   :)

Am installing a 3rd battery (deep cycle) under the passenger side of rear seat.

FWIW, it seems the "tinned" type wire crimped much better. i.e. it
"filled" the barrel of terminator after crimp done. This wire has way
more strands. The other stuff I was going to use did not  and MAY not
have filled the crimped barrel as well though the crimp felt quite
strong.
