Abstract: A battery terminal connector and process of manufacture. The battery terminal includes a connector body formed of an alloy comprising up to about 8.8 percent aluminum, up to 0.06 about percent magnesium, up to about 0.075 percent iron, up to about 0.006 percent lead, up to about 0.006 percent cadmium, up to 0.003 percent tin, up to 1.3 percent copper, the balance being zinc, all of said percentages being by weight of the composition. The connector is gravity molded or pressure cast, resulting in a battery terminal connector having high strength and electrical conductivity and good corrosion resistance.

Abstract: An explosive device simulator system has a housing in the shape of an explosive device. The simulator includes a sound producing system inside the housing. A light producing system inside the housing receives an actuation signal from a trigger system. The trigger system may include a microcontroller, which can be used to include a delay between a trigger event and the actuation signal. The simulator may include a smoke producing system that includes a powder that is dispersed by a gas generator. The powder exits the housing through a number of vents. A cordite odor substance may be included in the powder to provide a realistic smell of an exploded device. A light producing system provides the flash of a real explosive device and is connected to the microcontroller.
