    Is it ok to use on battery terminals/connections to ensure they stay moist and not dry ?

    Battery terminals don't corrode so much nowadays, due to the fact they use less lead in the terminal post. A dab of copper grease or Vasoline just stops oxide forming between the post and terminal.

    Vaseline is the best bet - just apply a small smear to each of the terminals.
