IBOT Spotted
This isn't on-topic but I didn't want to make a new thread.
I saw an IBOT wheelchair today (in Pittsburgh) as I was walking to school. It was being loaded into a FedEx "Custom Critical" truck. I was 10 minutes late for a test, otherwise I would've given it a thorough looking.
I guess I can make this kind of on topic...the IBOT uses NiMH batteries (lots of them as you'd suspect.) Dean was at a trade show talking about it and noted that, after heavy research, they found Sanyo cells and specifically the cells used for cordless tools were the best. The R/C hobby cells were actually inferior despite their higher cost.
