Re: Battery Mounting

Just make sure it is accessible to being changed. I think it is something like being able to be changed in less than a minute. This not only helps for matches and finals, but we have been in our town's parade the last two years and we always have at least one switch during it. So the quicker and easier to change the better.

Velcro is a great fastener. We have had a slot and used two strips of velcro each year. Unplug. Unstrap. Unload. Reload. Re-strap. Re-plug.

One of the mentors brought some neat straps in this week that might be interesting. Deltec, i think, was one and the other was a larger re-usable zip tie strap.

Good Luck.
