Re: New main battery connectors allowed

I'm helping a rookie team here in BC this year. They got all pink connectors in their KoP. The pink connectors were a very stiff fit... they went together nicely but were very difficult to pull apart. This past weekend the battery was stuck to the robot so hard that we had to disconnect the cables from the 120A breaker and PDP and use a vise to get them apart.

I dug up an old, red, connector and it worked great with the pink connectors. But the Pink battery connectors that the team received were too tight to be swapped out during competition.
