Brief Description: Made battery strap for bat removal from battery bo
Today I made a battery strap with some nylon neck strap that was an ID holder on a Carnival cruise we had taken about 6 years ago. It was hanging on a nail in the garage waiting for its chance to be used again in another life. I found some anti-rotation parts that were extra pieces that were not needed to keep the fuel pickup fittings from loosening in the fuel tanks. I drilled a couple of holes in the fittings and bolted them to the battery terminals with the terminal bolts. I threaded the strap through the fittings and put a couple of snap brads on the strap. I can now lift the battery out of the tight battery box with one hand!
I will not carry the battery around with the weight on the terminals. I don't know how strong the terminal connections are inside the battery. The strap is just for removal and installation.
Battery strap to remove battery from the boxes in the cockpit and on the FW.
Bolted the extra anti-rotation part to the terminal and then ran the strap through and closed snaps.
