Best way to connect to Battery FL1 terminal

What is the Best way to connect to Battery FL1 terminal?
Should I just use a nut/bolt/washer or is there a better way?

    Pair of new replacement 110AH 12v AGM batteries for the house system.
  • I'd use a ring terminal held on with a bolt and a flat washer/split lock washer/nut. The ring terminal and the battery terminal should be in contact, with no washer intervening, assuming a permanent attachment. For a battery charger or similar temporary connections, I see no reason why the usual alligator clamps would not be perfectly adequate.
