And don't solder the braid into the copper pipe. Just wack the sh*t out
of the pipe onto the braid, you want the 2 copper metals to become
homogeneous, on metal. If you solder, that only introduces another
element that actually keeps the 2 copper metals separate and makes the
passage of the electrons more difficult.

In the past, I simply fabricated my own using suitable diameter
copper crimp sleeves (or shot sections of copper pipe) and layers of
~3/4 inch copper braid. Press (or hammer, the crimps flat on the ends.
Then drill or punch the holes in the copper ends.
Here is a source for copper braid:

Looking to purchase (30) of the Braided Copper Battery Straps to tie
the CALB 180 Cells side to side. Center to center dimension is 76MM.
Does anyone have these or name of a supplier.
EVTV has the 70MM but no 76MM.
Thanks;
