I was down some rabbit holes on youtube, and came across this video,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2a8Seirw94

then the company, http://www.knukonceptz.com/mobile-audio/battery-terminals/

I've been adding items to my battery, and to make the connections easier, I added 2 lengths of wire (1 pos & 1 neg) so I could easily add/remove connections, and then only have one connection onto the battery, for winter storage disconnect. Along with the rubber covers cracking (available from marinas), these terminals give multiple screw connectors and new covers, for not much more than the cost of covers here.

Add a battery post connection and a new connector, I'm thinking the Bassik, and now everything is up at the battery, instead of moved over to where the tool kit is stored in the battery compartment.

This may also be something nice for those adding a remote fuse box. Add another lead to the connector, running to the new fuse box.

Enjoy

MC connections?
Yes, I have the same question. Didn't see any m/c application which I'd love to have, sure would clean up what I now have hidden under the cover.

Hard to beat a good terminal strip.

It's a good idea as long as there is  enough room around the battery.

No, not MC specific. I figure you can screw in the terminal post, then use that clamp on. If the post nut is the wrong thread, just change out the nut, I don't know if it would fit. I would email KnuKoncept before ordering.

They do make a good one, and others brands too, with nice options.

I bought a used set of the positive/negative battery cables, and I used them as extensions for mounting all the extra items that have been added to the battery, with a nut/bolt/cover to hold them on. This way I only have 2 leads on each screw, when it comes time to remove them from the battery. Those leads already have built in fuses, and I did find my external additional fuse box, which I intended to add a relay too and move all my additions to.

This might be a better option for you. These were specifically built for the Motobatt batteries but I do believe they will fit pretty much anything out there.
I bought a motobatt battery (AGM) recently. It has a total of (4) battery terminals on it but the Motobatt supplied terminal adapters are, in my opinion, junk.

Lamonster came up with some pretty nice ones!
