Battery compartment redo

[Tom]

Welding cable works fine but just remember that the covering is no where as
sturdy as regular battery cable. For the welding cable to be flexible the
individual wires are much finer and the outer covering is softer and more
flexilbe. When I recabled my coach I used 4/0 welding cable.

For those with FC models of Bluebird one of the best modifications you can
do is move the inverter/charger to the passenger outside compartment. This
will drastically reduce the voltage loss in the cables. The present cables
from the batteries to the charger go from the charger across the coach and
terminate under the passenger side steps and from there up to the front
making this length of cable far to long to pull the current necessary to
add for instance a microwave.
