The 2005 spikes look like they have a larger case than the older ones. |
Tell me about it! Using them on our new remote control go-cart of death we encountered the same problem. Somehow we got one to work, though we couldn't get another to work and had to switch to an older blue spike. Perhaps this was the result of the reverse polarity protection? That would make me feel dumb....
