Re: How many batteries do you take to competitions?
1023 took 5 legal batteries and 3 old batteries to GLR. We use 4 of the old-style chargers for our new batteries and use this years charger for our cart and crossbucks batteries.
Warning to ALL Teams:
We had a batteries from 2007 go bad on us and refuse to hold a charge. The charger light was green but when we started the match the bot wouldn't move. A voltage check showed 10 volts. The battery was recharged and still only held 10 volts. We now check battery voltage before we leave the pit and after we turn the bot on down on the field. Batteries can go bad!
