IMPORTANT NOTICE
As you prepare to attach the positive (red) and negative (black) wires to the batteries there
will be brief low power spark that is generated as you make the connection. This is due
to the high frequency capacitors taking a charge. Make sure the black wires are connected
as illustrated to the negative side of the battery and the red wires are connected to the
positive side or the battery.
