Re: What's The Coolest Promotional Thing A Team Can Give Out?
 

I loved those!! I still have one from last year!

To me the best things teams can give out are the more unusual things(AKA not buttons), and thinks that are really helpful to other teams.

Hmm what about those Timken stress balls, frisbes, and orange jelly beans 1071 was given to hand out at nationals??? (had to get the commercial in as we're on the verge of being the first major Timken backed team and not many people knew we were with Timken)


Unfortunatly we didn't know those stress balls and stuff we're going to go so fast. We only had 2 boxes of stuff, but I have been told it's almost guranteed we'll have 10 times more stuff for next year :-)

We gave away "battery flags" to anyone who would take them. We thought they would be very helpful to other teams. In retrospect we probably should have had a poster or instruction sheets or something explaining clearly what they were and how to use them.

"What they were" is a small yellow flat bit of plastic that fits into a standard battery connector.

"How to use them" is easy: fit them on a freshly-charged battery's connector to indicate that the battery is charged. In order to plug the battery into a robot, you'll have to remove the flag, of course.

This works very well to keep from being confused about which batteries are charged and which are used. You can't forget to pull the flag off a battery when you use it.

Team 1421 at the Lone Star regionals gave out ring binders with "Team Chaos" scouting reports to every team that competed at the regional.(40 total) Each binder had a color picture of every one of the teams robots above a scoring form. A very lot of work and very helpful.
