Re: Robot Inspection Checklist Prior to Matches

First of all, the rule that you stated only limits what type and how many batteries you can use. We are only using one legal battery on the robot.

Second, I stated this earlier, but I will say it again. Charging the pneumatics system adds NO electrical energy to the robot (as far as I know). The rule says that you can only get ELECTRICAL energy from one battery. It says nothing about pneumatics.

Third, the teams that charged their pneumatics on the field took a "portable" compressor attached to a battery and charged it through the pressure relief valve. That is essentially what we are doing also.
