View source for Howto Add an SAE Battery Charger Connector

I added an SAE Connector to my battery to facilitate quick, easy, & clean connection to a battery charger/maintainer.

<span style="color: red">NOTE! On the SAE Pigtails I bought, The wire colors are backwards. The black wire needs to connect to the positive (+) side of the battery.  The red wire needs to connect to the negative (-) side of the battery </span>

To "fix" this, I "colored in" the red wire with a black sharpie to make it less confusing (shown in last photo only).
=Instructions=
#Line the SAE Connector Pigtail up to the battery and cut the black wire (positive battery connection) a bit shorter
#Solder ring terminals install ring terminals onto a premade SAE pigtail
#Screw the new wire harness onto the battery
#Optionally superglue & fusion tape a small magnet to the SAE connector to be able to attach it to the bike frame when not in use
#Color in the red wire with a black sharpie to avoid +/- red/black color confusion

*Another popular option for connectors is [https://www.amazon.com/Anderson-Powerpole-Connectors-Pair-Genuine/dp/B005P9CATU Anderson Powerpoles].  I like the SAE particularly because of the available molded pigtail w/ dust caps.
