It&#8217;s just a plastic strap connecting two pieces that hold onto the battery terminals. It makes carrying batteries and installing them so much easier. The holes on each end are slightly different sizes, and are labeled for the positive and negative battery posts, but I&#8217;ve found that at least on the one I got, the labels are the opposites of what they should be.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3570\" src=\"https:\/\/mechanicalmalarkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/2017_10_19_02.jpg\" alt=\"2017_10_19_02\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I found this on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B000CO9NTI\/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon, and at the time of writing this review is only $6.99<\/a>.
