NewportBattery Quick Connect/Disconnect Connectors Terminals for Trolling Motor -Heavy Duty 8 Gauge Wire Marine Battery Accessory, Black

I've been using another plug (also bought from Amazon) for my connector. I've had problems with it and had to replace it one time already. I changed it out with this Newport plug and I'm really glad I did. That el cheapo connector I had on there before was starting to oxidize again, so it was a matter of time before I it gave me issues (the last one oxidized so bad it created a lot of heat on the postive terminal and melted my battery box).Really glad I saw these Newport Vessel connectors on a lighting deal last week. Got them yesterday along with a Newport Vessel extension kit (5ft), and swapped out the whole battery connector rig, cables and all. I did have to buy a heavy duty underground wire splice kit from Lowes to join the connector to my trolling motor cables, but thats just me being a little overly cautious (I dont have a soldering kit or the skills to do so, so I went with a nice splice with heat shrink). The whole process took me about an hourTested everything out today, and I seem to be getting more power to the trolling motor as I noticed it was going a little faster today. But definitely recommend! Great connector, solid connection, and stays together nicely. Hope it lasts a long time.

I got this for my Kayak which is to heavy for me to get out of the water with the motor and battery. This allows a quick disconnect so i can put them on the dock to cart the kayak out quickly. I love it and wouldn't ever want to have a set up without it.

Was getting ready to build one when I saw this. Lets you permanently install one end to the battery which is extremely helpful to not damage the lugs/terminals which are lead or aluminum on most batteries. My LiFePo4 is aluminum and I worry about stripping the threads. This is a really great enhancement that speeds up connecting and disconnecting the battery from the motor on the boat. It also adds about 2.5' of length to the cable overall, which can be a big help in many situations - if it's not needed, a loop and a zip-tie can solve that problem.My only "could have been better" is a cap for when the battery is not in use so the terminals could be protected from a short. It's unlikely, but still would have been a nice feature. I'm looking for one now. But that is not enough to prevent me from giving it 5 stars.

This plug is great. Pricey bet worth it. Makes connecting the trolling motor so much easier and faster. Looks well made so hopefully it will last.

Makes instant connect and disconnect to my Trolling Motor.

Never any issues very easy disconnect

Exactly as described and work perfectly. Easy plug and play!!

This is a really well made, motor. It moved our boat through the water faster than I thought it would. It hardly drains the battery
