Re: Minibot Battery

As stated in the rules (R92 C), it must be identical to the battery in the FTC kit of parts. Having a lower mAH rating makes this battery not identical to the one supplied in the kit. I am not on the GDC, but in my interpretation of the rules, this would not be allowed. However, if you could make one that supplied 3000 mAH, it would be identical, fitting the rule.

I emphatically disagree with that statement. It might have the same capacity specifications, but it would not be an identical part, and it would thus not follow the rule.
