As a sugguestion, if the wire has any green corrsion I would replace the
stuff with new, especially if that wire got hot , from my experience.

Greetings,
I'm curious if anyone has experience paralleling deep cycle batteries
for a repeater backup. I'm designing a battery disconnect circuit
that will open a relay if it detects over voltage, or if the
batteries discharge to a low voltage threshold. I'm also going to
liberally fuse
