Hello,
I just purchased two 100Ah LiFePO4 batteries from Flypower to replace two old AGM batteries on my sailboat.
My plan was simple - to swap out the batteries: unplug the existing cabled from old batteries and reattach them to the new batteries.
As you can see in pictures, battery connections on new batteries are short and bolt-shaped (not round like on the old batteries). Standard battery terminals on cables are have a round eyelet and require a longer connection on the battery to establish a proper contact.
Bolts seen in pictures can be unscrrewed and removed. They are M8 bolts.
I figured out that I can get battery posts to install. Where can I find high-quality ones (stainless steel)?
