Re: [OCCRA]: Batteries & Cables
You are not required to use the extension cables (in fact, teams with the older Cortex version can't use the USB 2.0)
Rechargeable batteries were supplied in the original kit of VEX supplies from OCCRA to save the teams money. There is a limit to the number of times they can be charged and discharged--yours may be reaching that limit. You may use whatever AAA batteries you like, as long as they are less than $90 and are readily available to all teams. OCCRA still requests that all teams have fresh batteries with the CORTEX turned "ON" during each match AND we want you to use our power supply at the driver station as a battery back-up.
