Re: Battery life?
This thread has strayed from the OP's intent, but we buy 10 new batteries every year. We put so many hours on them throughout the season that they inevitably end up not being as good as new ones. We practice during the current year with the previous year's batteries. We never use a battery in a match more than once. We won't even use a battery that's been on the bot in the pit for system checks/testing.
You can never have too many batteries or be too careful with them. It is the most critical part on your robot.
On topic, matches will not get any longer unless more than 6 teams are on the field at once. Just won't happen from a scheduling standpoint.
