Ordering tools etc now, need soldering iron , crimper be back at it couple days..
Crimper will be too luxurious, if used for once just.
Alternatively, hammer the barrel flat and solder.

Or indeed harm the PL8 itself? My 0-30V 10A power supply which I don't use much has a warning in its user manual not to turn it on with sensitive equipment connected, lest the equipment be damaged. So I was a bit concerned about the PL8, but decided it would have to not count as sensitive equipment because I do just leave it plugged into whichever power supply I'm using. But I'm mostly concerned about the Rapid as I have no idea how sturdy that brand is, I now use it daily and I got it already well used in its previous life (not sat in a warehouse used.)

Set this to a safe for most healthy batteries of .3A (300mA). -- Less if charge ends inside 5 or 6 hours. More if charge ends (goes to float) later like longer than 8 hours. Thats how to fine tune.
Is it best to fine tune charging of other lead batteries with the PL8 in the same way, that is adjusting the termination current until it's charging for about 6-8 hours, or is it better to just stick with 1000thC?

Still can't believe it's compact size!

The yellow is the middle connection between the 2 off 12v batteries...wired like this in SERIES you get 24v.
