Thread: Charger mounting

I thought you were one of the lectrical gurus☺

My education is outdated today and we never had any classes on battery chargers anyway.

Finally got started fixing my oooopppppssssy. Got my charger and terminals in. Picked up some solder and butane this afternoon. Got the terminals soldered on the cables that go from the cb's to the batteries. Fyi if you ever need to do terminal ends on tm cables or battery cables soldering is the way to go. Seals everything up and they won't come apart. It's also very easy. Tomorrow I'll do the tm to cb ens and negative ends. Will remove the old 2 bank charger, seal the holes, and figure where to mount the new 3 bank charger. Fun stuff.
