i do know that as the batteries age and are recharged more and more, they seem to get lighter, and hold a slightly smaller charge. i recall hearing somewhere (probably right here on CD), that this happens because the stuff inside the batteries slowly evaporates, a little bit with each charge. beyond this, all i know is that having one lighter battery is always good, especially if your robot is exactly 130 lbs.
