I nearly had the opportunity to demonstrate how the Anderson battery connector could be sequentially and safely disassembled to allow the installation of these heat shrink insulators for the terminals. Unbolting the battery terminal would not be required and this pair of shrinkers can cover the usual terminal lugs and bolts even if they are wrapped in electrical tape. Other urgent matters came up to interfere with the educational session. Perhaps I will get a tripod and make a video after CMP sometime. Use of this thick insulator will reduce the "welding" risk substantially.
