Batteries were an issue at VCU

Teams playing in the final rounds had to borrow batteries in order to play. Many great teams came to their aid and they were able to run. It was announced over the PA by the announcer for help.

The teams that use several powerful motors need the battery power.

BTW in message #376 from the FRC Engineers they stated that teams could buy EXTRA batteries if they wanted. Are their answers worth anything?

QUESTION: Were the answers that FRC engineers gave on many questions all subject to change? Should we re ask every question to see if thoughts have changed?

Speak out on the battery issue if it matters to you.
