Wouldn't that be alot easier than converting my battery terminals to posts and then converting my battery cables to clamps for those posts??

Just don't hook it up according to the picture ... they just shorted ground to positive.

Okay so I got two new battery cable bolts with accesory studs, enlarged the ring terminals with a dremel (couldn't find bolts with smaller studs) and all is well. Thanx for everyone who offered input here.

Good deal. So, what's the primary use for the Tender in the first place? I have two that I alternate between motorcycles and lawn mowers when they're in winter storage. In addition to keeping the batteries charged the BT prevents internal sulfation and results in longer battery life. Can't say as I've ever considered hooking one up to my car as it gets daily use and is maintained by the charging system.
