There was a team at Midwest that had just such a cart, Mike. it looked like it had four, six amp chargers on a top shelf and room for 6 batteries on the bottom. The cart followed the robot onto the playing field.

Yes, I think it's a great idea.
I've been debating the power supply issue. Another idea I had was to create a new robot cart powered by a large 12V deep cycle battery. Use the creation of the cart to get the kids interested in the pre-season. Use the 2004 mini-RC to create a control system onboard the cart that could activate lights and such, maybe even have power driven wheels. The 12V onboard the cart could also be used to power the robot in the pits.
