Might help teams to have a ground strap on the bots, they were seeing static issues at Boston today and wetted the carpet which seems to help. Boston in on an Ice Rink, I understand NH was too, so it seems Ice Rinks and Lunacy are challendges. Probably due to the ice pulling all the humidity close to ground level out. Humidifiers would help, just need to keep the humidity at floor level up.
