Just to be clear, the laptop can be solely powered by the laptop's battery and does not have to be powered by the robot's battery; the laptop can be booted and setup in the pit or in queue. This is probably what you meant, but the part about starting up "in that time" gave me pause. R20 is the relevant rule and this is just below the big blue box:

Additionally, batteries integral to and part of a COTS computing device or self-contained camera are also permitted (e.g. laptop
batteries, GoPro style camera, etc.), provided they’re only used to power the COTS computing device and any peripheral COTS
USB input devices connected to the COTS computing device and they are securely fastened to the ROBOT.
