That's 110 with all mechanical and electrical + battery hopefully.
That's a prety good weight to be at.
I love the 4-lifter design, and when combined with an omni drive I can see this being really competitive. However, you might want to consider removing a lift and using the weight to add some kind of alignment mechanisum for totes; I think aligning the bot with totes could be difficult.
