*WARNING* - No one has answered in 7hrs but the insecure one will now.

IMO Option1 (shorter wire Ring Terminal) should be long enuff. Don't forget the cpap cord will give you additional length.

Also I think the charger you already have is over kill. By all means you can use it because you already have it. What I have used are both of these for diff applications
https://www.harborfreight.com/search?q= ... %20charger

The smaller one I have seen on sale for $5 so keep an eye out if that interest you. You can use these with the alligator clips to try things out or crimp on some rings lugs.

I have used mine for almost 10 yrs like a UPS with the charger always plugged in - while using DC to power my cpap. Who wants to wake up in the middle of the nite to fuss around with a plug then 'try' to get back to sleep? Not I.
The trade off with larger battery chargers, they charge fast at the cost of cutting the lifespan of the battery in the long run, that is why battery maintainers work more safely. Jim

Also they are less likely to put off fumes, and boil out the battery.

Unless your husband wants to blow a ton of money on little capacity, he should help you with a 35ah mobility scooter battery, a battery tender, battery box, and the 12v power cable for your cpap.

That'll last you 5 nights or so without heated humidity, and cost a fraction of those expensive things you're looking at.
Would this work for my rig? I have a Phillips Dreamstation it is less than 5 years old at this point.

Yes, just get the right 12v adapter.

For a Philips Dreamstation: https://www.cpap.com/productpage/pr-dre ... ed-dc-cord

and this can be used to connect to the battery and allow the above to plug in.
