i am on my second set of clamps. They're not made very sturdy so recheck them after a couple of years for deterioration from acid build up.

Hello can we tighten the nut to double safety instead of only using the quick relaese lock? Afraid after severeal relaese the lock will goe loosen

@GXBOB

I’m telling you…. If i took a hammer to it, it still won’t come loose. The type of locking mechanism doesn’t allow it to pop loose on its own.

How about simply using the same clamp found on bicycles to adjust seat, remove nut/bolt from battery terminal and place the seat clamp on your battery 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks for the quick reply I was assuming people were overnighter them so when they clamped them down the had less of a life, some photos were showing cracked brackets after 6 months most of it was the bracket cracked that was around the terminal .. I will give these a shot before winter thanks 4 quick response

FYI @6:32 the washer the cam lock rides in is rotated incorrectly. That is partially why it tool a bit extra adjusting before it would fully lock.

I agree Ric, thanks for the advice. They do help for future vids.

Great video, from a fellow "Bob". My only suggestion would be that I would guess that the black and red bolts on the side are only intended for tensioning the clamps, and not for attaching cables. Also - are there rubber boots available for them? I have to admit, at the beginning of the video I was expecting you pull a cat out of the engine bay, so the dog cameo at the end was at least an indication I was on the right wavelength.

@GXBOB

Жыл бұрын

You are correct Rob. Sometimes i get a little creative and just go with it. I did not see any rubber boots sold or available for these clamps.

I wish at least the positive terminal came with an insulated cover. The positive terminal sticks out like a sore thumb.
