Powerpole Starter Kit

This product is shipped in kit form. When assembled, this cable is mounted on a mobile robot and provides the complete solution for transferring voltage and current from a robot's battery to the Power Distribution board. The tip-to-tip length is approximately 20 inches. 

Both end connectors of each cable are crimped with a 6-ton crimping tool.

Our Robot Signal Light is designed to work with the robo-RIO's RSL port to provide a quick visual indicator of robot status. This is not the 855PB-B12ME522 light specified by R70 of the 2017 FIRST Robotics Competition manual, but it does provide similar functionality.

We're offering this product so teams can use all the diagnostic features of the robo-RIO at an affordable price when legality and compactness isn't a priority. Our light housing is larger, and it is wired with two spade connectors. There is no polarity on the light housing, so it is not possible to wire backwards. 

To wire this light, we recommend our 2-wire cable (am-2133) and either soldering to the spade connections or using a female spade connector available separately.

Specifications:

• Weight: 0.1085 pounds without lead wires
• Height: 3.23 in. from top of dome to bottom of mounting stem
• Dome height: 2.09 in.
• Dome diameter: 2.24 in.
• Mounting stem diameter: 0.850 in.
• Mounting threads: M22x1.5, nut included

Pigeon is an IMU with 9 degrees of freedom, containing a 3-axis magnetometer, accelerometer, and gyro. The gyro has built-in temperature compensation. Pigeon provides a heading by sensor fusing all 9 measurements. It can be connected to the Talon SRX for power and communication via UART, or it can be wired to the CAN bus while powered from a separate 12V source. Pigeon has built-in compass compensation for hard-iron, soft-iron, and physical tilt. The Pigeon 2.0 eliminates the need for on-boot calibration and temperature calibration and does not require stillness upon boot-up.

These 10 and 12 gauge silicone wire are the best things to happen to robot wiring! Both gauges offer high strand count in a flexible sheathing. This wire allows for tight turns in small spaces, allowing you to achieve cleanliness unlike anything seen before. This is the wiring you need to achieve satisfyingly clean robot wiring, like what FRC Team 1538 achieves every year, but it's also perfect for wire runs that have to move with mechanisms on your robot.

Each product on this page is a pack of 25 feet of red wire and 25 feet of black wire. Each color is separate but packaged together. This is not "zip cord" like our lower strand count wire.

Specifications

• Color: Black and Red
• Diameter: 0.18 in., 0.22 in.
• Gauge: 10, 12
• Insulation: Silicone Rubber
• Length: 25 Feet of Each Color
• Maximum Voltage: 600V
• Strand Count: 650+, 1000+
• Temperature Rating: -60 to 200 Celcius

You won't find a better power distribution setup than this board. Use it for testing intakes, arms, testing full robots, and more!

The best in simple power distribution is here. This board features six individually fused outputs, accepting auto-resetting 30 Amp fuses or auto-resetting breakers like am-4112. The input and outputs use 45 amp Anderson Powerpole connectors, allowing for easy and quick connections. Large copper traces allowing for plenty of currents to all outputs.

This board doesn't look the same! You're right, we've made several improvements to this amazing board. Improvements to the case are also included!

• The number of outputs increased from five to SIX.
• Fuse holding connectors now feature support hardware making fuse swaps even more reliable. 
• The case is printed out of rigid PETG in two halves for easy assembly.
• Two mounting holes sized for 10-32 screws are three inches apart. Use these to secure your board anywhere with cable ties or strong hardware to perforated polycarbonate sheets.
• Four mounting holes sized for 6-32 holes on a 64mm x 32mm grid perfect for mounting to S3 or other FIRST Tech Challenge ecosystem components.

Specifications

• Hole Pattern: 10-32 holes on 3 inch grid, 6-32 holes on a 64mm x 32mm grid
• Maximum Outlet Current: 30 Amps
• Number of Outputs: 6
• Overall Height: 1.7 in.
• Overall Length: 3.7 in.
• Overall Width: 1.8 in.
• Total Max Amperage: 100 Amps
• Voltage: Designed for 12VDC
