I have a car that I don't drive much so the battery dies. Does the included ring terminal harness fit a standard car battery? Thanks.

If the ring terminals don't fit your battery the tender also comes with a clamp style attachment. You should have no problems.

Thank you for contacting us about your battery tender. Unfortunately, the ring terminals will be too small for standard automotive terminals, but you would be able to use the alligator clips that are provided with the charger.

They fit on the bolts that hold the cables on the battery terminals. They unplug so that once on, you do not need to remove them to drive.

Yes, simply remove the nut on the terminal, install the ring terminal and tighten, do that on both sides, make sure you connect the red to positive and black to negative. Hope this helps, Rick

no, it doesn't maintain the battery. my dingy has a pretty small battery (Honda Fit) and the only time I got the "low battery" warning was while driving through the mountains and using the brakes constantly. After that, I ran a hot wire from the motorhome into the car and attached a 12v outlet on the end (make sure you get an outlet rated for the amps of the brake). No more issue.

You cut off the two connectors already on the wire, and crimp ring terminals on the ends. Make sure the rings are big enough for the battery terminal you buy. Get a terminal for the battery that has a post and wing nut.

no, It Won't Fit. You Will Need The Slotted Capped Battery Without The Wire Plug Hanging Out Like The One In The Picture.

Jerry, Wire size is at least 16 and maybe 14. It is hard to tell by the size of the insulation. I've never had a problem with the units due to wire size or any other problems. The ring terminals have a 5/16 inch I.D. and a 9/16 inch O.D. They fit on motorcycle, atv and automotive batteries.

No.It connects to the battery harness with the quick connect that you need to get.This is an excellence addition for usb power.

Unfortunately I too am not sure what you mean by terminals, but like Suzanne, battery fit my Verizon box as well.

no, it needs to be wired directly to the battery with a 30 amp inline fuse fitted. the normal wiring used for a cigarette lighter is too light in gauge to run this unit

Double-check the fitment on your battery terminals. It will usually only fit one. Typically it's attached to the negative terminal of the battery.

No, these terminals are a little smaller than the Battery Tender and other standard connectors out there. I am going to try to spread the male part apart some to make it fight tighter because it is close. But read the manual on the Battery Tender - most are not capable of charging multiple batteries. I have one that is capable but it says only two batteries and they must be identical and in the same condition.

I had some issues charging a battery in car. The instructions say to connect one lead to the frame, but I ended up connecting terminal to terminal which my be a little dangerous. It took about 20-30 mins to get enough charge to start my car.

I did find a 12 volt car battery at Costco that fit into the battery comparment. It was intended for a Honda Civic and is a lead-acid rather than the orginal type, but it has been working now for several years. You should jot down the dimensions of the compartment after removing and recycling the old ones. Most people who sell car batteries are happy to help. If you use a car battery, be sure to keep the Xantrex in an upright position all the time.

Yes, but you will need to get terminal connectors. I had the same problem. The terminals on the battery are too large but you just need terminal connectors to essentially covert them to a smaller size. The company was kind enough to provide them to me free of charge.

It has the correct connectors, but they fit loosely and can easily fall off. Taping them down to the battery is the best answer I could find.

It is a universal switch, it is sized to fit a normal key hole in the dash. i am not sure if it would have all the same terminals as your existing switch.

Hello, the battery is slightly oversized, so won't fit the standard compartment, I bought some extra bands to hold it in place. That said this battery gives allot of power an last a long time

It would matter what fuse you hook it up if it would stay on with the car off. Mine is hook up to the same circut as the cigarette lighter. It uses so little power it would take week for it would take weeks to kill the battery.
