Re: Buying Batteries at St Louis
I'm not going to champs this year, and really aren't familiar with the St. Louis area. But I think it's doubtful you will find any of those batteries off the shelf. I have looked through battery retailers and found the same ones in a few places, but you have to order them. I think it will be tough to find any, but I may be wrong. FIRST is very specific to what batteries you can use, down to the model number and there are only two (2) legal FRC batteries in existence. I think one is an Enersys and the other I think is MK.
What you could do is go and buy any sort of 18-20amp hour battery that you can find for coding in the pits and performing any sort of diagnosis. But you may be able to borrow some batteries from other teams and I know there are batteries available at the spare parts station.
