Re: Advice on New Batteries

Which ever batteries you choose, make sure to use lock/star washers on the terminals. The KOP batteries come with lock washers but other brands may not. If you don't receive more than a nut and bolt for each terminal then you must get some. If you don't use them it can cause loose connections and cause your robot to have less functioning time.
