I am thinking of bidding on some heavy duty electrical cable

it is 5 KV cable 500 MCM  (about 1 inch in diameter) there are 2 spools of 500 feet each

this would be great for high current applications with batteries

I am just wondering if there are any people here that might be interested in buying some since 500 feet is probably several life times supply for me  :)

I am going to bid cheap (~ $1 a foot) because things have been very slow at this liquidation place -- I hope get it for less than scrap price 

I am happy to share the low price if I get it

just checking to see if there is any interest here
Often, our ignorance is not as great as our reluctance to act on what we know.

How flexible is it? If you're thinking about batteries my experience has been you nood flex; regular electrical cable is way too stiff for that use, IMO.

Don't need any here though.
Just because something has been done and has not failed, doesn't mean it is good design.
