Anyone know the terminal tab size for the Vagabond I battery? (not the actual size of the battery but the connecting terminals which connect from the inverter to the battery). I am not sure if it is F1 or F2. I am on location at the moment and need a replacement battery ASAP!!

I know this is late, but it is the t2/f2 style.

Ended up getting a battery (http://www.batteriesinaflash.com/sealed ... 2150-40658) which was awesomely sent within 24 hours but it was the wrong terminals! had to rig a weird wiring to get it to work.

So my next question...if both of them say they are F2 tabs then why are they different connectors? the one from Paul Buff is smaller and the other replacement is larger tab which has protruding holes with screw marks. any ideas?

For the moment my vagabond mini is carrying the load but it would be great to find some sort of adapter or something so I can have both of the batteries again.

Thank you!!!

I think that the Vagabond II uses something that looks like F2 on the inverter, but the battery is a screw-post, maybe a B2? I don't know what the Vagabond I uses - the pictures in the pdf manual are not high enough quality for me to see the connectors...

The F2 connection can, apparently, include two different blade sizes. The wire connector will still fit either. The hole you mention is likely for soldering or tapping with a screw (hard to tell from the pic).
