My experience with Harbor Freight electrical connectors is they are junk.

You are better off buying your terminals at your local parts store.

I'm on the road to BBTB visiting on the way down, I'm taking a 'quiet
day'. I'm redoing some wiring stuff (working on my Vanagon 'because I
want to' is relaxing for me).

I went to my tool bag and found something missing....

The extra visegrips I bought just for the tool bag were not what I
was thinking of (they are at home-need more), the long 17mm wrench
sitting on my bench at home was not what I meant either. The breaker
bar and socket are still under the back seat, the extra 12-13-14 mm
wrenches, 6 way screw driver, pliers and head lamp on the far back
shelf are where they belong. The extra 10mm wrench is by the start
battery where it belongs. The LED penlight is in the drivers door
next to the folding knife (with seat belt cutter).

What's missing is my zip lock bag with the electrical connectors,
rings & splices... I'm not sure when or why I took that out, if i can
find a Harbor Freight tomorrow I'll fix that.
