Vgate 12-Way Lead Acid Battery Terminal Connector, Multi-Size Hole Holder, 8AWG up to 4/0(XL) AWG Gauge, Positive & Negative for SAE/DIN/EN Tapered Top Post

My OE terminals melted and disconnected. my stereo was disconnecting and the truck wouldn't start at times. I have a stereo system and plugged everything in with the current terminals. I decided i needed something sturdier for terminals. Night and day difference. Took a bit of tweaking for some of the connections but i made it work. my system no longer disconnects and my truck starts right up. Couldn't be happier with this purchase

I replaced both of my Optima YELLOWTOP batteries in my Chevy/Duramax 3500 Crew Cab the other day (diesel engines require dual starting batteries) and realized that I was badly needing a clean up of my 12v wiring under the hood. I have added many accessories over the years, including an onboard air compressor for my Grover air horn, a new stereo system with a high output amplifier, front and rear cameras, HID headlights, a 1200 piece starlight headliner, etc., etc., etc. You get the idea. 🤣 I found these battery terminals while searching for a solution to the obscene cluster of wiring that was attached to my old battery terminals, as well as to multiple grounding points throughout the engine bay. I compared the design, build quality and customer reviews of many different types of terminals before deciding upon these. These puppies are very well made! Solid aluminum blocks with multiple attachment points for a variety of wire gauges. And, they have well designed terminal clamps that you can actually securely tighten without fear of them snapping in two when applying enough torque to make a tight, complete contact connection with the battery posts. About an hour’s worth of work, some heat-shrink tubing and some quality ring connectors, a few (actually, quite a few) nylon tie-wraps and a roll of wire looming tape and my engine bay is looking (and actually working) MUCH, MUCH better!!! 😄 I’ve noticed that my stereo system is actually sounding considerably better than when I was using a chassis ground connection instead of a terminal ground connection. Furthermore, I’m no longer ashamed to open my truck’s hood! 😂 Although these are slightly more expensive than some of the other brands out there that offer similarly designed products, I honestly believe these are far and away superior. They’re honestly worth every single penny, and then some!!! 😉 I highly, highly recommend these battery terminals! Your engine bay, your battery and even your electronic accessories will ALL thank you!!! 😀

Works great for adding needed, additional circuits.

these are great terminal connectors. they fit tight and look really nice. very easy install. very versatile with all the different accessory connections. good value for the money. the material is solid, you can feel the quality.

Quality easy to use

My truck needs to be jump start for a while and I thought it was my alternator or my starter. A quick test shows 14v on the battery when start so other parts were working. It turned out my old battery connectors were the issue. I got it installed and at first, the positive side was very loose. It was about 1/16th inch loose while the negative side is a perfect fit. I thought it was a manufacturing defect but it turns out the American styled battery connectors for the + side is designed like this. I got those lead battery adapter cap and now it fit great. Truck starts everytime now. My advice is to get the lead adaptor cap or find something that is 1/16th to shim it in.

There are a lot of negative comments on these but I bought them and they fit perfect. They look great as well. These are obviously for a custom setup and not a direct replacement but if you are into aftermarket accessories these are an excellent choice!! Will purchase many more!

Pure 5/5. I have so many connections which were on multi-crimped connectors which I've been able to break out successfully. The only problem is nobody makes a terminal cover for these guys. I hope the vendor sees this and can help out.

These Battery Cable terminal connectors are a 'Work of Art' and I do not have the interest in installing them on my Old 1996 Dodge yet. They would fit better on a show car. I will keep them as a show piece for my old Dodge diesel pickup and install them when I have more time. In any case, they are well built and I would recommend them to others.

L’article est de très bonne facture mais de mon côté, j’ai dû le retourner car il n’était pas compatible avec l’installation d’origine de mon véhicule à cause d’un module sur le pôle négatif. J’ai tout de même donné 5 étoiles car ce n’est pas du tout la faute de l’article si ça ne faisais pas, alors je n’ai pas à le pénaliser pour une question de conception qui dépend plutôt du fabricant de mon auto. Si l’article aurait bien fitté sur mon installation, je suis persuadé que ça aurait été une excellente acquisition car à prima bord, la conception de ces bornes de connexion est bien pensé et avec des matériau de bonnes qualité et en plus, est très soigneusement emballé dans une très jolie boite et c’est assez rare de nos jours de voir de tel articles emballé de cette façon et avec soin. Merci.

Did a "Big 3" upgrade to the electrical on my pickup and decided to try these out. Glad I did. Easy to connect multiple positive and ground cables to. It's basically a high amperage bus bar right on the battery, which gives the installer more options. Cheers!

The Vgate is a great battery connector. Most important is multifunction for accessories.

works good
