What size (awg / area) cable have people used for their battery relocation projects ? I was going to use 35mm2 (2 gauge) welding cable which is cheap and cheerful, wondered what other people had used / done.

I used 2awg amp wiring kit. With a circuit breaker rather than a fuse, but if you crank for too long it trips out.

Was going to use a 200A breaker as they go at 80-100% of rating, which would make it a 160A breaker at worst but can't find a UK stockist so will go for fuses instead. The cable is, I believe, rated at a little over 200A so will go for a pair of fuses (one at each end) and wire in some failure indicators.
