Abstract
A battery terminal connector includes a body portion with a first yoke and a second yoke extending forwardly of the body portion to form a terminal receiver hole. A power fastener extends from a rearward end of the body portion to receive one or more of an adapter, a primary cable adapter, and/or an auxiliary cable adapter. Each of the adapter, the primary cable adapter, and/or the auxiliary cable adapter extends rearwardly of the body portion. The adapter has at least a first aperture configured to be coupled to the power fastener and a second aperture configured to be coupled to the auxiliary cable adapter. The auxiliary cable adapter may be coupled to the second aperture with an auxiliary fastener. A cover is coupled over the battery terminal connector.

A battery terminal connector, comprising:
- a body portion having a first yoke and a second yoke extending forwardly of the body portion, the first and second yokes forming a terminal receiver hole;
- a power fastener extending through a rearward end of the body portion, the power fastener coupling a primary cable adapter to the rearward end of the body portion;
- and
- an adapter having a first end and a second end, the power fastener coupling the adapter to the rearward end of the body portion at a first end of the adapter, the adapter extending rearwardly from the rearward end of the body portion, the adapter coupled to an auxiliary cable adapter at a second end of the adapter.
A method of connecting a primary cable adapter and an auxiliary cable adapter to a battery terminal connector, the battery terminal connector having a body portion, a first yoke and a second yoke extending forwardly of the body portion, a power fastener extending through a rearward end of the body portion, the method comprising:
- coupling the primary cable adapter to the power fastener so the primary cable adapter extends rearwardly from a rearward end of the body portion;
- coupling an adapter at a first end to the power fastener so the adapter extends rearwardly from a rearward end of the body portion;
- and
- coupling the auxiliary cable adapter to the adapter at a second end, so the primary cable adapter extends rearwardly from a rearward end of the body portion.
A method of connecting a primary cable adapter and an auxiliary cable adapter to a battery terminal connector, the battery terminal connector having a body portion, a first yoke and a second yoke extending forwardly of the body portion, and a power fastener extending through a rearward end of the body portion, the method comprising:
- coupling the primary cable adapter to the power fastener so the primary cable adapter extends rearwardly from a rearward end of the body portion;
- and
- coupling the auxiliary cable adapter to the power fastener so the auxiliary cable adapter extends rearwardly from a rearward end of the body portion.
