Aftermarket Battery Terminal Options

Here's my setup with the cheap Amazon terminals mentioned way back by the original poster. Still seems a bit messy, but better than before.

I've had these for over a year and have held up well, but the fit to the battery terminals is not great.

Anyone know of a good cover/flap that can be cut to a custom shape? I maybe know a guy who shorted out a battery with a wrench one time. :oops:

Hey! If you're still interested, I just finished the my design for covers for these terminals (working with @ClassyJalopy). See photos below! It comes covering everything, however, it has slits in it to make it super easy to trim whatever openings you need:

Like my other cover designs, it's meant to be held in place on the terminal via a ziptie:

Here you can see how it 'hooks' around the perimeter underneath:

It 'flaps' open nicely to let you access the terminal:

And here is a better shot of the premade 'slits' that go down the sides and the front. This material is tough/flexible, but cuts nicely with a sharp utility knife or sidecutters:

Positive cover alone is $25 shipped to your door, or positive + negative set (negative printed in black) is $40.

Andy is very gracious to call it "working" with me :D. He is doing all the work and I am merely buying these. Solid dude!
 
We have redesigned the covers and they will be going into production. The previous version became to expensive to produce and have a viable product to sell. We will have both positive and negative terminal covers.
Any updates on when they’ll be available?
 
Hey folks! Someone reached out to me for some new terminal covers for the Vgate AF12 terminals - so I ordered a set and got to work!

These are the Vgate AF12 - the smaller sibling to the A12 terminals. I think these are a great size! The covers are available on the site now (theartisangarage.com) but if you're looking for a set of these terminals + covers shoot me a message! I've got the set I used to design the covers, and would bundle them with both a positive & negative cover for $70 shipped to your door.

Like my other terminal covers, these are printed out of a oil & heat resistant urethane. Perfect to prevent accidental arc welding between terminals!

Have some terminals that you need covers for? Let me know and I'll see what I can do!

I'll take that set of AF12s that you used for development. PM me with PayPal info or however you want paid.
