Thanks for the breakdown on your c-box Drake,  but
I've never heard the bit about wire nuts not being
appropriate for DC.  What are the reasons for this?

We usually dont use them because we allready use
distribution blocks and tip out midget fuse holders,
which provide excellent mechanical connections.  We've
also gotten in the habit of using aluminum boxes
instead of steel.  This all comes out to a pricier
c-box, but we're going for a top notch installation.
