Wrenches,

Here's a tough one for me to understand. I am installing 2 volt AGM batteries. 
There are two terminals for each battery polarity. I have some height limits so 
I need to use the minimum wire size. Here's my question: If I combine two 
identical conductors, what is the equivalent single conductor size? 

I found one "rule of thumb" that says doubling like conductors creates a AWG 
decrease of 3. Example: two #2 will be equivalent to 2/0. Is this true?

Thank you,
