Re: Scouting using tablets
Yep, our batteries on the iPads were generally about 20% at the end of the day. We turn the brightness down, turn off Bluetooth and WiFi, and put them to sleep when there are long breaks in the matches. We also lock them down and hide apps and browsers so our scouts are not tempted to play games between matches (using up battery power and bandwidth.)
We never asked the FTA about using 3G, that's not anywhere close to the spectrum FIRST uses and its use is rampant in the stands anyway.
