Bad battery and blown fuse

[gibvel]

Can't say that I like the idea of threading straight into the post. I like that idea of the screw and nut because you, almost, can't over tighten them. (I said almost). Always scared I'm going to strip out the battery post.

 

However, I'd reserve judgement until I actually see the set up.

Its not actually a post in the traditional sense but more of a poured lead flat area that the screw bolts to. Like Squid said, its threaded and to me its way stronger than a conventional post. If you overtighten this one then you most likely would have broken off a post anyway..LOL.
