Go to Post I've always believed that being who I was will not limit me to who I will be. That's what keeps me trying to learn more and become a better person. Otherwise I would've settled being someone ordinary and not care about anything around my life. - Ken Leung [more]

Well, FIRST disagrees with you. Use that to your advantage

Re: Motors/Battery life

there are definate variations in capacity from battery to battery from the same year. Every once in a while we got one that was so poor at holding a charge we wrote "BAD" on both sides with a sharpie. They would only last about 3 or 4 minutes, while a good battery would last 12-15m, and they were new!
