The equivalent #4 CCA is thicker than #4 copper, also a lot stiffer.
Attachment to battery better be well thought out to deal with stiffness.

I had Eric use his hammer crimp to crimp on a connector on a sample, it
hand pulled off, so a better crimp and solder is in order.

I calculated weight savings, and will take the mini hit on weight for
better flexibility, and more important the smaller diameter. I calculated
for aft battery.
