Smile Re: Best Battery Chargers 2016

I don't know the make and model off the top of my head (I can tell you in a few hours as I'm going to the shop to meet with people about this issue) but the weird thing about the chargers breakers were that it only happened when we first got them running and it would only trip the breaker at competition so we put one in our cart ad to not any teams near us. We had a professional electrician look at the cart and the chargers and he could not find anything wrong but it kept happening. We honestly felt that since they had been around for 6+ years now and that previous members had not taken good care of them that we should buy new ones. The really strange thing iso I have been working with these chargers for years now and only this year did problems occure. We had a couple matchest where we could barely move our robot at half speed because of it (we got really lucky on some of those and a replays were called due to other non-related reasons). We have had a lot of issues with alliance partners putting in dead batteries in the past and would hate to let down our alliance like that. As of right now we are considering doing as a previous post alluded to and using them as 2A chargers for storage of batteries at the shop.

Once again thanks to everyone who had contributed, and best of luck in years to come
