NEVER cut another wire! - KnuKonceptz ULTIMATE Battery Terminal 2.0!
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 07. 2024
- In order to install a custom car audio system we often times need to connect a large power wire directly to our vehicles battery terminal. This can be a challenge though when the factory wire cannot be cut or modified. The KnuKonceptz Ultimate Battery Terminal Version 2 ( The UBT-20 ) solves many OEM integration issues and works great on recessed batteries with a unique interchangeable clamp screw orientation. Let's take a deeper look!

This is by far the best battery terminal ever made. I love it I've used 3 sets on my personal vehicles and I recommend them to everyone.
Could you tell me what the thread pitch is for the hole where the post adapter goes?
You sold another set. What a great idea. I have traditionally converted to military style terminals but this is much more convenient for modern vehicles with fuses integrated into the terminal.
This is super awesome! Not only for car audio, but for doing a standalone EFI install like Holley.
Thanks to you, I have almost completely replaced all the wiring in my car with knuKonceptz. Great products.
Perfect timing - this is the last issue I needed to solve and my system will finally be wired in. This will definitely be a big time saver.
I was literally talking to a friend asking him about this as we were doing a Big 3 upgrade on my F150. It has a bunch of connections on the stock wire terminal. That's awesome that they have these features on these posts.
That is pretty nice! I like the cover on it vs the cheaper clear plastic ones that the tiny tabs always break that hold it on rendering the covers useless. It's cool that it fits down in that recessed terrible battery design that always seems to limit the install options. The best part is the ability to put ring terminals on. It's a much more reliable cleaner method than those threaded Allen posts that clamp down on the wires, mangling them.
I love how it's not overpriced either! Amazing work!
I’m glad my last install had a distribution block built in from the factory. It was a great surprise and kept it looking OEM. The only pain was fishing the wire in the tight space in front of the firewall. I definitely used some tips from your channel on wiring.
Thank you for the great information on this product. I just placed an order for the KnuKonceptz this battery terminal, vertical posts, fused distribution block and some ground wire for my new Amp install. I enjoy learning about car stereo installations from your channel.
Love this video, thank you CAF for your knowledge and sharing.
Awesome. I'm gonna order a pair to replace my original Knukonceptz terminals already in use.
This terminals are awesome. I have them in multiple of my cars but if the battery is in the trunk this isnt as helpful but since all my cars have the battery in the engine bay, this is super helpful to install aftermarket wiring directly to the battery.
A lot of thought and engineering. Nicely done.
I love the design. Perfect for my honda van
OMG I was looking for this exact solution for my dual battery setup with a type 94 recessed Duracell and XS D3400. I can now easily connect the 1/0 from the alternator, and my parallel cables and whatever else I need! Sweet!
Thank you CAF!
To me the most amazing thing about this video is how flexible your thumb is. LOL! My old thumbs are too stiff to twirl around like that when you were finger tightening that screw. 🤣🤣 Now I gotta go out to my shop and look for an allen screw just to see if I can get my thumb to move like that. 😂😂 I still enjoyed the video. 👍🏽✌🏾
Clever design👍👍
Best terminal I’ve seen!
Great demo. Thanks!
Super cool! I purchase my set yesterday and they arrive today!
Where did you buy from ?
Found your old video then surprised you had a newer version video. Clever little terminal setup for sure.
Beautiful presentation.
Definitely going to be ordering one of these terminals.
It seems every used car I buy has buggered up battery terminals.
New subscriber.
Well here is a knu koncept I have knever seen!
I am so excited by the cool new options we have for terminals and distro blocks!! Awesome video, thank you!
This is marvellous!
That's awesome. When I installed my system in my Titan I had to get creative because as far as I know this stuff wasn't available back then. But I am missing part of the factory setup. It's probably somewhere, since I would never have throw it away. It is available to replace also. My Titan has battery fuselink that's attached to the terminal also, but this would solve that problem.
Genius product! 👍
Top notch.
We’re truly in the future now. I can’t wait for mine to show up
Man, great product and video. Sold!
Hope you enjoy it!
I had wondered how long it would be before KnuKonceptz produced a version 2 of those battery terminals. I personally have a positive and a negative version 1 and so far I am happy with the quality, functionality and how they look, and they have been installed for about 2 years now. I'm sure the new design will help a lot of people, but I will say that a short reach stubby/Allen wrench could have made installation possible at least with that specific battery and a version 1 terminal block
Modifying an allen wrench with a grinder was my first thought but this setup is pretty flexible :)
Just bought this 30 minutes ago 😂. Didn't even see this video yet
It is very useful.
Do you recommend any particular anti-corrosion steps. I am not sure if one is better than the other on keeping the terminals safe. If any? Thanks. Love the terminals.
thank u sir
Shoutout to all the peeps using these & did the big 3 with 8g wire 😂
would love to see a review of the bassik terminal, its a lot smaller and looks wayyyy cleaner as far as I can tell.
Do they have anything for sidepost batteries?
I miss the older 5 sided compression style terminal with the cover from Knuconcepts
Do you have a video for isolation/ 2nd battery install? Thanks
Could you do a video on the Rockford dsr1 ?
how do you cover the additional positive post? looking at one for our CX-5. I need to add 2 10-awg wires to the +post (hitch and sub)...
My big question is, how well do they resist corrosion? These would come in real handy when I can finally get back to the rewiring my 1979 bass boat with 4 batteries.
This might actually work with a dual battery setup that uses very large wires connecting the batteries plus to the alternator.
I purchased the original style. I Wish i knew this version was coming out. Im upgrading to an optima battery so i should be good
Will the battery sensor on the negative terminal still work properly?
I have a question I have a side mount battery terminal. What adapter would I use to mount my amp wires?
You know what was even better? Batteries with top and side posts... Hook up one way or the other with both factory and whatever you're doing. 👍
Unfortunately not available in every size, and the sides of the battery are often not exposed.
Ehh I went with the factory Battery in my Prius because it’s a damn good agm battery. My Prius is the shiiiiiit. Anyways I didn’t get the one with extra terminals and the cable from the car has all kinds of additional stuffs makes it complicated so I had to use a lugged end. Those are cool things those items in the video.
These are nice. Definitely makes it look clean.
Mr. CAF! Since I don’t know your name) Can you possibly help with a little info (when I say info, I mean generally) watched your video on calculating wire gauge for power and ground, but I can’t find any specs on the 2nd amp I’m using for a single audiobahn 12” sub. The Amp is a ProAcoustic PRAM 1222 StudioPro 1200 (MOSFET high performance amplifier) It is capable of being bridged. I’m trying to figure out the following.
Class A/B or Class D?
Ohms and watts when bridged?
I don’t mind removing the cover, if it helps to identify amplifier type.
I realize you’re not a genie. I just thought (based on your experience) you might be able to glean some info based on the chassis model and markings. Hopefully you or someone who’s laid hands on one of these can help. Thanks in advance.
Do they have a solution for the batteries with side ring connectors and no posts
does it come with the alum keys and post
I can't seem to find an explanation for how the two ports for connections work. It appears that there is some sort of ferrule installed on these wires from your video?
The field can handle a large load ,and pos doesn't need any larger guage normally .as its down stream from a device
Do a video using this product on a side post battery
Can you put a ring terminal underneath the post Adapter
What is the thread pitch of the battery post adapter
It seems that the vertical terminals could also be turned 90 deg to make them horizontal. Is that true?
What I would like to know, is whether or not this would work with the gigantic fuse distribution cover on top of GM truck batteries.
It probably won’t just like it wouldn’t work on my volvo c30
Where are you getting the wire ferrules? How critical are they? I haven't used them in the past. I am using these on my 71 Camaro because I have relocated the battery to the rear of the car. They work great.
i ordered a bunch off amazon years ago and have been using them since. would definitely recommend
Hi ...what happens if the sub is 10 000w peak and 650rms and the amplifier is 8000w and 700rms ....can u explain this plz
This is great as long as you have the room for it to sit higher under the hood without hitting.
If your battery is that close to your hood you have issues
I imagine it depends on the car. Some have more room than others.
I wonder why it took them years to do this. Only complaint I had for their terminal post.
Just wish they would make one with 2 1/0 holes. Until then I'll just keep running those cheap NVX/Recoil/ETC... brand terminals on Amazon.
Will those terminals work on marine battery systems. I have a semi truck and marine battery terminals.
These are designed for SAE type battery posts. Its possible, if your battery has both types of posts like some marine batteries do
So you have group 31 batteries with the threaded studs, which is standard on HD trucks. As a diesel mechanic, I have lead post adapters that screw onto those studs that make it easier to charge and load test those types of batteries. You should be able to find them online, at any battery store like Interstate, maybe even some of the larger truck stops.
Thanks I will look for those screw on adapters.
Nice product, too bad we don't have it available worldwide. 😢
We ship worldwide on our site and the original UBT-840 is stocked in Australia, Canada, EU and UK
Is this connection also available in Europe?
Our original UBT-840 is stocked in Europe and ships from Slovakia.
I like it, except for the fact you need so many sizes of allen keys
That top post adapter will rise my battery post making it touch the hood & create a short. Not for me
sooo... still "Nothing" for a Side Post battery? ...thanx
There have been solutions for side post batteries for 30 years
They should build in a fuse removing the need for external fuse and this gets it a close as possible... not 18 inches. Not sure how to accomplish this, maybe a fuse that mounts directly to the output portion.. example, place this on, make factory connection, take the new zero distance fuse (tm :-) insert that, then connect the amp power wire.
how would you separate each fused connection? I believe there are fuse blocks with multiple fuses already in play
Could you stack these? I doesn't seem right but would be funny to see a bunch stacked and how it would effect power delivery.
We do not recommend stacking these.
I have the previous version but haven't installed it yet and yeah on our 07 tahoe has the same tight space for the battery terminal.
I was think of cutting down my allen tool to install it and make it work.
I may look into getting the second version of their battery terminal.
Looks like they no longer sell this
First
First comment, nice!
