So, I'm looking to add some quick connectors to my trolling motors (2 Minn Kotas, 30lb and 50lb), LiTime 50ah lifepo4 battery, and NOCO Genius 10 charger. SAE connectors seemed to be the best option as NOCO makes a nice little SAE adapter for their proprietary charger quick connect.
However, I don't understand how you do the positive and negative terminals and keep things straight. Take this set of two SAE adapters:
Amazon product ASIN B08Z86MCV5
They both have the positive wire on the male side and the negative on the female. But that means when you plug them in together, then you're switching them around. So if you installed one normally on the battery, you'd have to install the one on the trolling motor backwards (red SAE to black trolling motor wire, etc)? The photo in that product listing even shows them being backwards:
This makes no sense at all to me. Are there other "male plug has negative wire" SAE adapters out there? Or does everyone just have non matching wires around?
