I think Katie answered your question pretty well about 7 minutes before you posted this in your first thread. The answer is: No, you can not use a different air supply than the one provided in the kit of parts.

Team Update 6 addressed this:

If you wish to order extra batteries from a Batteries Plus location with the order form provided on our website, you should ONLY contact the Manchester NH store. This is the only location carrying the FIRST-approved batteries provided in the 2005 kit of parts for this year. Please Contact Batteries Plus in Manchester NH at 603-621-0100.

The Batteries Plus order form can also be found in the Documentation section of the FIRST website here.
