I guess so, but if they don't want us using disposables, they should have to provide us with the rechargeable

(something about those two lead bricks i added to the robot...)

yes that would do it
I think Philup used more batteries up because of its weight than some of our robots have, but we fortunately had managed to find some really good disposables that lasted us ages (tank tracks weigh a ton
) but i think the pneumatic robot the boys made only went through one or two sets
we have a huge stockpile of 'controller batteries' that are too weak to run the robot but perfectly fine for the controller
