Bent terminal post.

Post by Dooley »

The terminal post on my battery just bent, I can't see that well as I've only got a fluro lantern but it looks like it's cracked or buckled about half way up.

I'm assuming that's not good... ?

I mean, it still works, I think , but should I think about getting a new one ?

100 bux to replace the batt with a bigger acdelcor is wise. from challenge batteries in ossie park. part no. is 22fr 500 i think.

bending it back could effect the plates inside
