Yes thank you. I did have 35mm2 ring terminals though already.

What I am worried about is that there seems to be so little surface area in direct contact with the diode terminal to conduct high amps through.

I will admit though that I have not seen any evidence yet that a ring terminal connection is not high amp enough. It's just me being a little weird again.

ADDITION: and sure these are just dry experiments only focusing on the connections. Before I go put power on it, all will be well insulated

ADDITION 2: would one know of something of electrically conductive paste? something in kind to thermal paste yet electrically conductive like a gossiping housewife is with trivial information mostly meant to not be shared publicly.

I am still so freakishly unwieldy with a soldering iron. Sure I have got the gear in the meantime. A soldering station even with all bells and whistles.
But if the operator has a shaky hand like I do then that means nothing.
