Re: Average Energy per match

This is an interesting question, and the detailed, technical answers have been quite valuable. Thank you Don and Al in particular.

The question may be more than a theoretical one one of these years, however. If we "get what we celebrate", as Dean Kamen likes to point out, perhaps we will want to celebrate energy efficiency and conservation at some point.

Perhaps there will be limits on how many batteries or how many recharges a team can have at a tournament. Just think of the innovation in power monitoring and management that would bring about for teams.

If we played a game like that, you can bet almost EVERYONE would know how much energy they used every match.
