Actually team 25 has found that two of our new MK batteries from this season have failed (in Hawaii). They seem to be taking a charge but they rapidly lose it and are spent well before the round is over. We were attributing it to the fact that for the first time we have the battery mounted sideways and I was assuming that the cells were being jarred from robot impacts.
Normally we mount the cells upright and a battery lasts past a single season. We are ordering a few replacements for the Championships later this month.
If this is a "bad batch" of batteries I would like more info. We charge with the exact same type of chargers the kit has included for the last few years (prior to 2008)
