Be aware of battery and charger inconsistencies!

Build a student a robot and it will keep him/her busy for a few days in the spring. Teach a student how to build(design, wire, program) a robot and they will stay away from home, use some really strange language and wear funny clothes the whole year long. - Al Skierkiewicz [more]

Which rule is it against? I looked & could not find it. I wonder if that was an oversight or intentional. Last years rule doesn't count.

Regardless of legality Al has a very considered opinion of not going over a 6 amp charge rate.
