We like to run new batteries. One of the reason we are testing them more now is to see if we can judge the differences better and maintain them better. We also give away some of the batteries that we no longer think we need to young teams. $250 in batteries isn't that much for what could be the most important part of the robot, with out the battery nothing else works.
