Heh...I left out the key word...That being what's the "MAXIMUM" voltage
and/or mA it'll take. I want those 'lil motors running with max
torque/output -but I'd rather not fry my RCX's 'lil brain. And even #24
guage is just a wee bit too big for soldering on to SMT boards (umm...just
to clarify SMT being [S]urface [M]ount [T]echnology). -Shoot, if you can
cleanly solder #22 to SMT PCB boards you are way more hardcore than me! :)

#22 gauge hookup wire is a place to start, I'd suggest putting a easily
replacable in-line in there just in case...

I
Q1: How many batteries does it take?
Q2: How much current can each battery provide?
Q3: What is the series/parallel arrangement of the batteries?
A: Use Ohms Law
If you're running around blowing fuses then you need more practice with
basic DC circuits.
