Our battery cart has slots for ten batteries and four chargers, and a fifth charger sits on top of it. I think we presently have it filled with batteries from this year and last. Our official qualification match battery rotation probably uses eight of them.

We also bring a couple of non-competition-legal batteries for pit use only.

We brought 6 batteries this year, but one failed during competition.
In the Finals we were running short of charged batteries and had to borrow. Unfortunately, we were loaned a discharged battery.

I think we have like 7-8 batteries... We have a crate that has speed chargers fixed to the inner sides and it has fans to keep it nice and cool. It wored wonders at both of the regionals this year.

What does "speed chargers" mean? Remember that six amps is the maximum legal charge rate.
