I've safety wired a lot of things but what are you going to safety wire the battery post nuts to ?

The nut really just holds those two things together tight. This is why the nut is better than a wing nut, it can be tightened tighter. I have stainless steel nuts on all of my boat batterys.

G I have no doubt you have stainless steel nuts.

Never thought of that......but I would be afraid something might get a gainst the safety wire. I have never had any get loose anyway since I threw the janky wing nuts away and replaced them.
