What quick connects do you use for your trolling motor/battery?

I have two trolling motors and one LiPoFe4 battery. Also, I can't leave anything in any of my boats because we live "in town" and you know how that goes. Nice stuff wanders off.

So I was thinking of setting up quick connects on each of the motors and on the battery. There seem to be a lot of options out there. Have any of you done this and, if so, what kind of connects are you using?

Only extra thing to think about is that I have a noco battery charger that I use for the LiFePo4 and they have their own quick connect style (x-connect). So I'd either have to use an SAE style quick connect (as they offer an adapter) or wire in whatever quick connect I'm using to one of their adapter harnesses.

For the record, here is my battery and charger:

Amazon product ASIN B08K7MKRF7 Amazon product ASIN B07W3QT226
Motors are a Minn Kota Endura C2 and a Minn Kota Powerdrive.

I used this to connect motor to battery. It’s great bc you can really tighten the battery posts and leave it in place.
Amazon product ASIN B00MYTF2NU
And this to connect charger to battery

Batteries hard-wired to a plug in the back, which mates with the motor plug, end of day snap the battery plug into a charger harness plug w/spade terminals for the charger clamps.
