Re: Old Batteries

We have a good sized collection of old batteries too, I was thinking they could ride along on my next trip to the metal scrapyard, the robot team could use the money.

I was also planning to take some used up aluminum. It's worth about $0.50 a pound, if it is "clean" (no steel parts in it, such as screws or rivets)

Since 57 is in the same city as our home regional, we usually end up donating most of our old/used/scrap aluminum and steel to the regional for use by other teams. I'm told it's saved many a team's bacon over the years.
