We found that our gray batteries weighed on average 13 pounds, while the black-top ones weigh 14 pounds. I assume there is similar variance between manufacturers. OCCRA weights robots with the batteries, so we weigh all of them to find the lightest one to weigh in with.
The weight difference between the SB50 and SB120 plastic connectors is far less than a pound, so the weight difference isn't a significant advantage.
