I have advised my teams for years to do the same thing Mimi's team does. We cut off the clips and put on one of the Anderson Connectors. Not only is it much easier to connect the battery to the charger, you never have to worry about the battery leads touching accidentally. From experience, it is best to solder the leads of the charger to the leads from the Anderson connector, and then cover over with heat shrink. You will need at least a 60W soldering iron to do this.
