battery terminals

[scrappy 10+ year member]

I am looking at battery terminals to clean up the look of my install. I have a 4 ga and 0 ga power wire running to my amps. I am looking to do the big 3 but I want to upgrade the terminals first. Who is running aftermarket terminals? What brand are best Im leaning toward the knukonceptz ones. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5774765886&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

What are your guys thought? Thanks

Im running some like that that I got from PE and I LOVE them. Good terminals...the one downside is you have to be REALLY careful otherwise those **** bolts strip. The allen heads on em that is.

get this one.

From Phoenix Gold. Has one dual fusable 1/0awg and then has a 4awg and another 1/0awg that aren't fused. That thing kicks ***. I can sell it to you for $30. Its the TMC.902k

I seen the stinger ones and the kk one. Wich do you think is better and why? The pg one is that $30 for one or both because the kk one is both and the stinger is somethinh like $35 for both

Which "both" are you referring too? The positive PG terminal is $30 and the negative (which is unfused but has the same outputs) is $30 as well.

I was asking if it was positive and neagtive(both) or just the positive one.

that one up there is just the positve. You can't have a terminal that does both.

I use Stinger HPM-series terminals on both my pos and neg

There's a seller on eBay with the username bag-boy (link is for his eBay store) and he's also got an off-eBay website. Good prices, discounts shipping for multiple items, and ships lightning fast. I've bought from him more than a couple of times and was treated very, very well each time. For a matched set like pictured above you'd be looking at less than $30 including shipping for both terminals.

I realize that. The stinger and kk come in sets one positve and one negative.

I am leaning towards the kk or the pg ones.The kk ones are not very expensive and the pg one is fused so I wouldnt need a fuse for the alternator run. How many feet do you think I would need of wire to do the big 3 on a durango

 

[audiolife 5,000+ posts]

no more than 12 feet total between pos and neg unless you make some long runs somewhere. i would look at the factory wires and go off that. (s-10 is smaller than a durango i only used about 9 feet total)

okay thanks. im thinking of doing the square wire probaly from kk

 

[scrappy 10+ year member]

One more question is I go with the kk ones where does the stock wire go? Does it go to the additional ring terminal? So I would have one going in on that terminal and one going out? What about the other ones is that where the stock wire goes as well?
