Ring Terminal Sizes

FYI.

The studs on the fuse blocks take #10 ring terminals and so do the smaller studs on the battery and starter contactor. The larger studs on the contactors are 5/16". The screws on the Odyssey battery are 7/32" which equates to an M6 ring terminal. So when ordering cables, ask for the M6.

I wouldn't recommend ordering the 5 or 8-position heavy duty terminal strips from SteinAir. They are HUGE. I'll be returning mine. I found smaller versions from B&B Aircraft Supply in Gardner, KS. While I'm thinking about it, don't get the accessory outlets from Stein either... they don't come with a way to attach them to anything. Not sure how they expect you to install them. (I have had very good service from SteinAir, not slamming them..)
