Some knowledge about SAE connectors
Although there is a risk of shorting out the battery charger, the risk is small and usually mitigated by the circuitry of the battery charger itself. On the other hand, the short-circuit current of a lead-acid battery installed in a vehicle is large enough that a short circuit may cause a fire or explosion. Therefore, the priority is to avoid short circuits of the vehicle battery, rather than the charger.
Although the term "SAE connector" is commonly used to refer to a two-pin connector, many different connector standards specified by SAE International may also be referenced by this term. Also, while the design of the theme connector is inspired by and based on SAE standards, the connector itself does not have an official SAE name.
After research, we found that there is no specification for SAE2 pin overmolded connectors. SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) specification J928 covers "Electrical Terminals - Pin and Receptacle Types" and SAE J1239 covers 4, 5 and 8 pin trailer connectors, but there does not appear to be an SAE specification for a 2 pin overmolded configuration.
