Re: Power in the stands
With 8 laptops, a network switch, and a camera, we have not found robot batteries to be adequate. Also, it doesn't help that they shut off the power on the pits at night.

Re: Power in the stands
With the distance that we travel we can not bring a larger battery. It also limits how much we bring to run off the inverter so it works for us. I found that robot batteries are easy to carry up and down stairs.

Re: Power in the stands
Sort of like 7 years ago when my company, Bayer Healthcare, was taken over by Siemens Healthcare. Being a big tech company I was expecting great things. We took a step backwards of around 10 years in technology.
