Abstract

A tool-less, side mount-type battery terminal connector comprises an elongated conductive body having threads on the inner end sized to engage a threaded female recessed battery terminal, a central cylindrical portion of larger diameter than the inner end, and knob on the outer end. A shoulder at the junction of the inner end and the central cylindrical portion functions to clamp an end terminal of an electrical cable to the battery terminal. The knob is sized to facilitate manual, tool-less rotation of the body.
