Re: Longer battery wires

You're only allowed 12 inches on the battery half of the Anderson connector <R5>. You could, theoretically, use a longer cable on the other side and still comply with <R36>, but I would urge you not to do so. Every bit of current your robot uses goes through that cable, and more length is more resistance is more wasted power.
