Battery/cable question

I do not think I can live long enough to use all of mine, and I have even given some to friends and neighbors

It amazes me that 15 cents worth of material could end most of these corrosion issues, why doesn't OEM's use it on all battery connections?

Every PBX battery installation kit that was ever shipped to me came with a supply of NoOxId grease and application instructions and a dissertation on why it was important to cover every terminal to prevent corrosion. . It is the difference between professional installation techniques and consumer products.

I am down to my last partial tube, but it has taken a lot of years. I also have used it for weatherproofing antenna hardware parts. When installing mobile antenna mounting brackets on automobiles, I discovered if I coated the screws with NoOxId before I ran them into the cars sheetmetal they nor the sheetmetal rusted or corroded. When I traded cars and removed the mounting brackets, the screws and sheetmetal was as clean as the day I drove them in.

Have you ever replaced an OEM 90* cable clamp with an off -the -shelf clamp.

No, it may be possible, but at the time of failure it was much quicker for me to order the cable and pay the ~$80 for me than to investigate if a standard /batterycable connector would be somehow able to be re-routed or to chase around looking for a specialized connector.
So far I have looked almost anytime I go to a parts store or am online looking at different parts, so far I have had no luck.

I may look to see how difficult it may be to re-route sometime..... :confused3:

Right now isn't that time for me
If you do find out please let all of us Bobcat owners know

Does Kioti have the screwy connector?
Maybe buying a Kioti connector/cable is the right play??
