Does anyone have any elegant solutions to this? It's really time consuming and ugly to run big parallel battery string wires *out* of the battery enclosure to class T fuses, then back into the battery box. It looks very ugly and DIY, and in conduit adds a few hundred to the install cost just for labor. The Class T fuses and blocks themselves are not particularly expensive. I have been recommending parallel fusing on battery banks of 2x8 L16s and over now, after a nearly tragic incident with a bad cell that shorted. The (perfectly legal) wooden battery box made the fire much worse. A pet peeve of mine.
