We found that to be a HORRIBLE idea. Every time we would close our Classmate, the joysticks would get out of order, and often times it forced us to reboot the entire system.
Much better to just grab an extension cord and plug it in. (Bring some tape to secure it down better so robots can pass through if needed.)
