Woohoo!
Is that 4 batteries now?
Nice. Don't forget to protect the positive leads.
Red and black battery post cover
You're supposed to cover the entire positive posts.
Wonder why when you buy a boat from BPS, they don’t have those covers on them?

I don't think I have ever seen a battery post cover, besides the one that comes on the battery when new. Anybody got a link to one that meets IL. requirements?
I just tie wrap a piece of 1/8" rubber over the post. Was checked once and was ok.
It doesnt specify what to use just covered with insulated material.

I'm using something like this, on both terminals, all batteries. Can usually get them at Auto parts store, farm and home stores, etc.
For wires that comes in the sides, I cut a slit for them. I have more wires than will fit in the hole, cut it, taped around them to hold it on.
This is news to me also....Both my batteries are in plastic battery box's with the correct lids....is this good enough or do I still need to cover the post?
