Crocodile clips do not grab plugs that are too small. Not suitable for batteries with side terminals

Very disappointed with this product. I've attached a few photos which may not clearly show the problem. Excuse me. 1) Alligator clips are NOT attached to battery with side connectors as shown. Clamps are cheap and will drive you crazy trying to snap them into place. I've included a picture of the clips with my Schumacher charger to illustrate what a well designed clip should look like. 2) The supplied ring cable lugs are too small for the standard battery pole bolts on the battery-side pole. In addition, they require significant modifications to be usable. I think if you have spare wing nut terminals on the battery they will work just fine. I ended up enlarging the holes and making some other changes. But why should I? If you have side ports, forget it. So why not invest in a decent set of alligator clips?
