Re: pic: installed battery team 842

If I'm not mistaken, it would appear as if you've bolted the Anderson quick disconnect connector to the side of your battery mount. If this is true, you're probably going to have trouble when inspection time rolls around at regionals.

I cannot find any mention of it in the rules, but should your robot go haywire on the field, this falls into the "make sure your main breaker is clearly accessible" category. If you can't easily pull the two halves apart, the entire point of using the connector is defeated.

As I said, I can't find anything in the rules about this, but I'd submit a question in the Q&A forum to be sure, as it seems like it'd get called somewhere down the line at competition.
