HELP US, Batteries issue for the championship
 

Hello everyone,

we are team MisCar 1574 from israel.
this year we won the engineering insparation award at the Israeli Regional and regional finalist.
this is our 6th time at the championship at the last 8 years.
we requested not to ship our batteries to the championship this year because we are not allowed to carry any batteries on the plane.
Till this year, we brought around 10 batteris from Israel , but this year we are getting only 2 batteris from First at the championship. ( 2 batteries it's definitely not enough)

if you / your team can help us and borrow us batteries at st. louis it will be great!

please contact us at the mail address : asafisr@gmail.com
thanks a lot!

Please let me know if you have any difficulty getting batteries from a team at championships. We are not going, but there are numerous teams in our area that will be going and I can check with them to see if they would be willing to transport a few of ours to and from championships for you to borrow. Best wishes for a great competition!

MisCar,

I just talked to the lead electrical leader on our team, and we'll be bringing our entire battery cart, meaning we'll have plenty of extra batteries. If you need any batteries, please don't hesitate to let us know, we'd love to lend you some! Stop on by 1676's pit anytime; we're in the Archimedes Division. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me. Good luck, and we can't wait to see you there!

Sincerely,
Ryan Hall

Same here. The only thing if we make it to the finals we need them back or we are screwed.

Re: HELP US, Batteries issue for the championship
 

Who or what is preventing you from carrying batteries this year?

Re: HELP US, Batteries issue for the championship
 

First organization in Israel ask us not to bring any batteries with us at the flight/ ship some with the robot box from the reginal.
im not sure who is preventing us. it might be the flight company that don't want ant batteries with chemicals in the flight or the shipping company because of the weight.

any way, it would be great if the teams can borrow some batteris for the championship.

Team 3142 has two batteries we can lend you for the duration of the championship. We're in your division, just come talk to us, and ask for one of the drivers.

I would also like to use this place and ask for help for teams who aren't very active on Chief Delphi..

Teams are 1690 (curie),1937,3083 and 4320 (all on Newton).

Any help to those teams would be very much appreciated, and if your team is on their Division, and you have a way to help them - please send someone to do that.

Thanks =]

Re: HELP US, Batteries issue for the championship
 

We have at least 5 (at max 10) extra batteries that we'll be bringing, and even though we're on Archimedes, please feel free to stop by and we'd love to help you out. :)

Re: HELP US, Batteries issue for the championship
 

216/244/288 will be in Curie [well, 2 of our teams anyway], and because we have 1 less team than normal, we may be able to spare a few :) Come stop by 288's pit and ask for Abby [me, I'm the captain] and I would be more than willing to send a few batteries [students, parts, etc.] your way!
