Go to Post The point of outreach isn't to "win" a "game" so I'm not sure what you hope to achieve with such a concept. The idea of "beating" another team in terms of outreach is fundamentally flawed. - dcarr [more]

Re: Wire length

Yes, this is legal.

Our team has been trying to optimize battery wire length for years. I suggest you make them no longer than you have to. The voltage (V) drop on these wires add up, so it is always good to keep that resistance (R) down to a minimum.
