I agree with this, just for the record.

This is quite true. However the robots are generally voltage limited because of the bypass diodes on the motors (this would be the only legal source I can think of that would generate a large voltage non-static pulse).
A large battery on a cart would encourage things like 110VAC inverters.
Even though I have a battery to charge a laptop I use an automotive laptop charger it's a DC/DC converter and relatively sealed.
If we start with lots of 110VAC inverters next there will be outlet strips and outlet strips plugged into outlet strips (bad idea).
This is not really up to me and I don't want it to be.
FIRST should do their due diligence and make the call.
There are what? 3 topics on this. Clearly it's important enough someone should just ask officially.
The sooner the better really. While there's lots of time to alter course.
