sealing battery connections
« on: February 14, 2010, 04:39:25 pm »

Chaps and Chapesses,

I am in the process of assembling a Sheerline Ohio sub, and was wondering what methods people have used to insulate the battery terminals on the main 12v battery that is in the wet area, and the terminal connections on the outside of the WTC.

Your ideas would be great I can't weait to get her wet.

Cheers

Silicone tube works for me.

Or give Chris a shout & he can supply the moulded covers he supplies with the kits.

you need to seal the positive terminal at both ends, silicone sealant will do fine on the battery.
