Team 254 has the same feelings. While we will likely put it nice and close to the PDB, it never hurts to have extra wire just in case. We do NOT want to have to splice in a wire to go to the PDB ever. The longer PWM would also allow us some breathing room when we inevitably re-terminate the ends once installed on the robot.

On the whole though, seriously no complaints on the form factor. Lots of awesome changes here.
