Re: batteries and chargers
 

The Interactor X5 charger I bought several years ago came with alligator clips, we had to put the anderson connectors on ourselves. It is a good three stage charger.

The anserson connectors, contacts, and reducing bushing for 14-16 gauge wire can be found at:

Remember to delay procurement for expensive items until after the kickoff. You never know when there may be a change of equipment/rules in the battery department.

Re: batteries and chargers
 

Team Paragon is still happily using our 2004 battery cart to manage all battery charging, storage and transport.
We built a second one for our friends at RAGE on 05 as a thank you.

One charger per battery.
Individual status voltmeters.
Load tester volt meter for more accurate battery to battery condition comparison.
(& A place to prop the team laptop for those last minute programming changes in the pit.)
