“SB type” refers to SB type only (e.g. SB-50, SB-120, etc.), not SBS or any other part type beginning with SB. All batteries supplied by FIRST (such as Spare Parts and international batteries) will have a red or pink SB50 connector installed which may not be removed.
The pink connectors included in the KOP mate with the red SB50 connector.
While pure copper wire is recommended, copper-clad aluminum wire is considered copper wire
