Battery / Inverter Cabling and Accessories

REAL PEOPLE - WWW.THESOLARBIZ.COM - 888-826-0939

With almost a half century experience of making battery cables for the over the road heavy truck industry we don't solder our cables because a soldered connection puts solder between the wire and the lug. Solder is not as good a conductor as copper. A copper to copper twelve ton crimped connection is the best because, it carries more amperage and it's UL Listed.

UL Listed custom made cables of the finest code approved flexible cable, crimped UL lugs with Red, White or Black heat shrink tubing. Our UL Listed crimped  lugs make the best connection because they are hands down, the thickest, heaviest, most durable and conductive lug in the world.

Our code approved custom cable sets are, beyond a doubt, the best you can buy. They will serve your system  well for many years to come.

 We can custom make any cable length you require in 4 ga, 2 ga, 2/0 ga and 4/0 ga UL Listed Ultra-flex cable. Call 888-826-0939 to discuss your needs and for pricing.

Acid Spill Absorber & Neutralizer                                           

This amazing product is way beyond anything else on the market you could use. For years all we had to recommend to folks was to sprinkle baking soda on the floor underneath their battery installation. The result was marginal at best.

Now you can spread our acid spill absorber & neutralizer with confidence that any spill will be contained and neutralized. The formula changes color when acid is present and then changes color again when the acid is neutralized. No guessing that it worked... you see visual proof it has done its job. We sell the 8 pound bucket which should be enough for the life of your batteries.

We recommend spreading the formula on the floor under your protective floor mat and then on top of the mat as well. Then place you batteries directly on the formula. Any spillage will be quickly absorbed and neutralized.

• Ultra Polymer Absorber is safe and non hazardous.

• Sweeps up clean and dry not dusty like kitty litter.

• Specifically formulated to neutralize Sulfuric Acid

• Does NOT create asphyxiating Carbon Dioxide Gas

Battery Cable - Interconnects                                                                  

Highest quality multi-stranded copper welding cable with twelve ton crimped tinned copper lugs and heat shrink tubing on both ends. Our crimped copper lugs make the best connection because they are a copper to copper connection.

After almost a half century experience of making battery cables for the over the road heavy truck industry we don't solder our cables because a soldered connection puts solder between the wire and the lug and solder is not as good a conductor as copper. A copper to copper ten ton crimped connection is the best because, it carries the most amperage.

We will custom make any gauge and length interconnect you require, using superior quality Lugs and Heavy duty Heat Shrink, call 888-826-0939 to order.

Power Vent                                                                                                                                    

Battery Bank Ventilation
Ventilates hydrogen that's naturally generated through the charging of your battery bank. Prevents dangerous build up of explosive hydrogen gas. Uses very little power. Guaranteed for 4 years. Choice of 12, 24 or 48V DC models.

The POWER VENT was designed for use in remote home power systems. The concept arose from field experience of systems with enclosed battery boxes. Quite often the NEC required venting was found back drafting, thus cooling the battery bank and lowering its' capacity as well as venting hydrogen gas into the structure.

POWER VENT alleviates this condition by keeping a gravity operated damper closed within the vent pipe except at times when the batteries are being charged and producing hydrogen gas. During these times the battery box is force vented with a low power, sparkless fan which overcomes the damper sending the gas outdoors. The "fan on" mode is determined by the battery voltage. When the batteries are "gassing" during charge periods the battery voltage will read above normal. A voltage sensitive switch is required in the system to make the on/off determination. All TRACE SW model inverters have a programmable auxiliary relay which can operate the POWER VENT. Other systems require the addition of a voltage controlled switch.
