I was thinking; since brass is more conductive that ss (at least that is what I have been told,) that making the terminals out of brass may prevent from heat to accumulate in the terminals.
I am planning to seal the terminals in the inside with silicone seal so it will not come in contact with the electrolyte.

Has anybody experimented with brass terminals?

I was actually looking for copper terminals but I could not find them and they are probably very expensive.

So nobody has experimented with brass terminals?
I guess I'll be the first...

If they're sealed with silicone, you shouldn't have any issues with them. I believe there are others who have done this.
