I read this hint a few weeks ago, I don't remember where:
The plastic shafts from cheap double-ended cotton swabs on a
stick (you know, X-crips or something like that ;-) fit the
power pole connectors perfectly, have enough friction to
stay in place, are easily custom sized with a pair of side
cutters, and are available in quantity cheaply at the dollar
store.
