One of our students came up with a device that made separating the battery connectors easier. It looked like a nut cracker but had two pins, one on each arm, not far from the pivot. The pins were inserted into the small through-holes in the mated connector pair with one pin in each connector. Opening the two arms separated the connector with about a 3:1 leverage advantage.
The tool has since gone missing but the connectors have loosened up enough to be separated by mere mortal hands (barely).
