12V battery died after 8 years

I think the skinnier posts are called JIS. JIS (if that's what they're called) battery connectors are hard to find in the US. One can get adapters tho.

My battery came today. I had a ground wire already made and bending and grinding the positive lug, bolts onto the battery post connector, did the trick. It's in, I ended up putting the foam padding on top. Bob and I are the test subjects, aka guinea pigs, for these batteries. I think they'll have a pretty limited service life just because they aren't built to automotive standards. Who knows, I could be wrong.

 

Well, as the man says in his signiture, I've got "skin in the game." Worth a shot and the price certainly is good.

In my searches, I found a wholesale supplier in China for our B20-JIS batteries. $10 each, unfortunately, the minimum purchase is 100 batteries. Plus shipping. Too many to even get as a group buy.
