Check with PV Cables to see if they have a recommendation.

If other Wrenches have product recommendations I'll take them. The battery wire we've spec'd is 4/0 copper (UL 1283 / MTW / THW). For the stripper should I be looking for a stripper that works for copper "THHN / XHHW" or "RHW / RHH / USE"? Logic would suggest THHN but I don't know enough about the individual properties of these wire types to understand the pros and cons of how well it will strip the wire given the different insulating jacket thicknesses. So far in my initial research I have only found crimpers that are lineman-specific and haven't dived into the realm of automotive tools so any direction that folks could throw my way along this avenue will also be appreciated.
