: The terminal that joined the relay with the wire was very loose. And oddly enough, this was the second faulty relay we had this year. Has anyone else had this problem with the innovation FIRST relays?

I'm assuming that you're talking about the terminals that the motor and power supply connect to on the relay. I was talking to Dave from Innovation FIRST at the Great Lakes regional, after having one terminal simply fall off of a relay during shipping, and it turns out that the production company that they contracted out the actual fabrication of the relays and other components did not press the terminals into the boards as was requested before soldering the board, causing for loose relays. I would recommend contacting Innovation FIRST to get information on exchanging the defective relays for new ones.
