Re: [Chrysler300] a simpler fix for battery disconnect

[lettercars@xxxxxxx]

Thanks, Fern!   How about that for Keeping it Simple?  Was  wondering about 
that while reading all the complex suggestions for simply  removing the 
cable.  I have done so for at least 30 years.  I  make use of Kopr-Shield 
conductive and anti-corrosive surface compound wiped on  both the battery posts 
and terminal clamps.  That way a mere twist of the  battery cable end either 
disconnects or connects and you are good to park or  go.  The material is, 
if I remember, available from Eastwood.  I use  it on all electrical 
connections as well.

I have  never found the need for one of those battery disconnects as with 
it you'll  end up with a weird adapter. What I've been doing for years is to 
never quite  tighten up the negative clamp and then I can easily twist it ON 
or OFF without  use of tools. I always disconnect the negative cable 
whenever I park the car  at either a car show or it's storage area. My theory is 
that it's hard to have  an electrical fire if you don't have a dc loop in the 
vehicle. Just my 2 cents  worth.
