Al,

You're right - the KOP battery plug contacts are all machine crimped. There is a hand tool we sell designed specifically for those contacts, but it's pretty pricey ($200+). Don't know if there are any cheaper alternatives out there.

I have a great place- I found them at a forklift company. They're the cheapest I've seen, you can get them in multiple colours, and you can get all the wire you need too- crimps and otherwise- for what have been the lowest prices.

In fact, when they were sold out they called me up to talk about the order. That's service.

Tell them you're with FIRST- that won't garner you a discount, but it might, with enough people ordering, get us all a discount come next year
