Remember the issue I had with the brand new battery seeming to die on my trailer?
So, I decided to replace the top post terminals with the eye terminals.
The old terminals were loose. After removing them, there was... rust. Likely from the dissimilar metal of the clamp and bolts.
It ain't fixed yet, but next trip in, I will need to clean the rust off and then put the new terminals on. Likely good to go after that.

Please clarify between which "posts" were "loose" and the usual house battery that has both a fat lead post that takes clamps, and a threaded bolt that you put a "ring" lug terminal on and tighten down with a nut or wing nut.
