Go to Post In my book the team building experience of the kids training the engineers in the operations on the field would be invaluable. It might not get a trophy but you win far more in the long run. - Wayne C. [more]

Re: Battery connected backwards to robot

We connected a battery backwards due to the wires being reversed on the Anderson connector. The operators noticed it wasn't behaving right after being connected and turned on for a couple of minutes. The battery was hot but I don't believe there was any damage to any of the electrical components. They put in a new battery and worked fine through competition season without replacing any parts.
