Attaching m401 battery connector

[rbonie]

How do you guys attach the battery connector to the battery box..

Sorry for the double post. Ain't got the hang of attaching files :>(

drill a hole the size of the connector. solder the wires to the connector first, then push the connector through the hole. Make the hole just a touch smaller than the connector is so you have to force it in there. then use whatever adhesive you want from the backside.
Hotglue, epoxy, everybody has their own thing they like the best...

Yeah did that with JB welds putty Stuff hardens like iron but apparently the vap juice weakened it and atty got loose.. Hoping for some magic potion I guess (sigh)

alot of guys swear by the HotGlue. I like to use a two part epoxy also.. Seal your connector hole so the juice doesnt get through as well..
