Lighted LEDs

[Jaime65]

Hey! Team 65 - The Huskie Brigade Along With Gm Powertrain Came Up With A Question About Weight. Will The Lighted LEDs Be Weighted Onto Our Robot During Inspection? If So, How Much Do They Weigh?

[Cory]

Yes, they will count during inspection. I do not know how much they weigh. You could weigh last years to find a rough idea of how much to allot for them

[CJO]

1) Probably

2) Not much, a few ounces for all 4

I haven't had a chance to see the KOP yet, but did we get the same LEDs as last year, I heard rumors of getting new ones this year

[CJO]

The LEDs did not come in the kit of parts, they are being given out at the regionals, or so I have been told

I heard they're slightly different, and harder to break

[M. Hicken]

thank god, we went through 12 of them last year, 4 of them before the bot got to the field. We had a curse with the LED's and radio modems

[Al Skierkiewicz]

It is interesting that there were none shipped in KOP and the IFI website says "call for availability". To be on the safe side, figure at 3-4 ounces each.
