Re: Robot batteries and the hurricane

Thanks guys! I went ahead and gave it a shot just to test and it worked!! I decided to use the PD board (since the robot is at my house) because I figured it was safer that way. The system basically goes Battery -> PD Board -> 12V Socket -> DC to AC inverter -> AC Adapter for whatever device I want to charge.

Re: Robot batteries and the hurricane

We purchased an inverter from AndyMark that comes with an Anderson plug already on it so it can plug right onto a battery. it works great for powering the Classmate on the robot cart or at demos.
