Re: Legal battery chargers this year.
I think the amount of batteries will depend on how you use them. Previous years with us not using pneumatics, 4-6 batteries with two chargers was very adequate.
If you have a lot of pneumatics and plan on pre charging a bunch of tanks in queue you could need quite a few batteries and chargers to keep up.
This year we are using a lot of pneumatics and are bringing 10 new batteries and some of our previous years batteries for pit demos (LED shows and such for the pit visitors). We will be bringing 5 (6amp) chargers as well. We also plan on using the previous matches battery for the pneumatic pre charging and swapping in a fully charged battery when the robot is ready to load on the field.
Good luck this season,
Aloha!
