I saw your message somewhere, and someone posted a source. Maybe check any
other groups you posted it to.

For some reason my earlier message last week on this topic was never
posted. If the Moderator removed it, PLEASE do not remove, this is a
boat electronics item.

Looking for a solid bronze battery post connector. I purchased some
several years ago, and now cannot find the source. The usual places
(West Marine, Downwind Marine, Ample Power, etc) have no idea what I
am talking about.

The connector is all bronze, and resemble an inverted "shot" glass
with a 1/2" threaded stud protruding from the "bottom". It fits over
and conceals the battery post, and then four screws are tightened
which secure it firmly to the post. The annular space between the
post and the bronze adapter is the filled with grease via a zerk
fitting. The battery cable terminal is then secered to the threaded
stud. This design virtually eliminates all corrosion and rusting
steel, as there are no steel bolts.

If anyone has a source it would be appreciated.
