All this lead talk reminds me of one I've been meaning to ask:
Anyone know of adapters to allow a small battery (eg: lawn tractor,
motorcycle) with the flat connectors to connect to a standard round
automotive cable?
Been thinking I could just try casting some lead parts, since that's
what the terminals all see to be. But if there's an off-the-shelf
source, that would be better!
The goal is to put an ultra low-mass battery in place of a regular
automotive one, for autox performance.
