Hey, so our team is planning to decorate our robot with a few cold cathodes, but we're not sure about the legality of our method for powering them (or even whether they're legal in the first place).

We have them hooked up to a 12v AC inverter, which is connected to the battery terminals on the power distribution board.

Is this acceptable/are cold cathodes even allowed? We couldn't find anything in the rules regarding decorations aside from the prohibition on anything that interferes with gameplay/other teams' robots, which cathodes don't seem to do.

We're a rookie team, so we're sorry if this question is a bit out of place.

Thanks,
Team 3419
