good morning. 2 questions regarding harbor freight battery. 1) how are you charging it? 2) What kind of connectors are you using to go from the battery to the starter. and 3) I know I said I had 2 questions. can you post a picture of your starter with the battery installed. Thanks

I use the wall wart for an overnight charge. http://www.harborfreight.com/charger...ols-67031.html I carry an extra battery in case I need it at the field,but I have not had to use it yet.

If I need a quick charge I just use a triton2 charger. The pack is actually just sub-c ni-cd cells. The rated capacity is 1.3 amps. The triton does a good job of peak charging them.

The battery has blade connectors. I just crimped some slide connectors on the starter wire. It allows me to just plug/unplug.

*edit* the battery in the pic is one from wal-mart, I grabbed the wrong one for the pic, all the same info applies however..... oops
