It can't hurt to mark the connections in an obvious way. How about it LM and IFI?
I wasn't sure if the Jags had the same type of labeling since I didn't really look at them when I had the chance *note to self* look at Jags.

They could color code it better Red/Black since MOST of the wiring in the robot should be standard I know it doesn't end up that way but color coding might be best and then do a burn in label or just label on the sides with a much larger + or - with M or B next to it either way I'm all for making it easier, it's just getting the respective comp. attention to do it. Maybe E-Mailing them would be best???
