Default Humminbird 7 Amp Battery and charger reviews

I am looking at getting this for about $41 off Amazon...has anyone used it? I am looking to run my depth finder off of it.

Also, I am curious about the connectors on it and what kind they are...all pictures of it online are blurry...

Looks like a good piece of equipment. Can anyone tell me how I would use / run / hook up a fuse on this for safety's sake? I don't know how to hook up such things unfortunately.

I use a 7Ah battery, and works just fine. I get several days out of it running a Lowrance Elite 4. I place a 3A inline fuse in series just after the positive terminal. I use spade connectors at the battery termination. When I get my HDS Unit, I'll go with a larger battery, but the 7Ah works fine on anything that draws .350A - .7A
