Re: Tetrix Battery Holder vs. NiMH

I will stay, from my FTC experience, that the battery is quite a good one. We are able to run one FTC bot with 4 DC motors and 5 servos for ~20 minutes before recharging without any noticeable reduction in performance. We always worried about our NXT batteries more than our primary battery.

Of course for those trying to be on the razor's edge of speed, you won't settle for anything other than a fully charged battery.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
