Re: Al's Annual Inspection Thread

<R34> The only legal source of electrical energy for the ROBOT/HOSTBOT during the competition is one MK ES17-12 12VDC non-spillable lead acid battery, OR one EnerSys NP 18-12 battery, as provided in the 2011 KOP
I'm pretty sure that you guys that are making up your own rules about the robot queue should be restricted to ONE battery for the COMPETITION as the rule clearly states.

I'm pretty accepting of pneumatic energy being listed separately from electrical energy as a separate allowable source.
And I'm very sure that the intent of the one battery rule is solely to prevent us from driving around during a match being actively powered by two or more 12v batteries.
