Re: AC Adaptor?
We have two wall-wart adapters which we use for testing the electronics. One provides 9v at 1/2 amp for the backup battery, and the other provides 12v at 1.5 amps for the RC. This works fine for testing the electronics, camera, sensors, etc, but will NOT run any motors.
Think about this -- the battery on the robot goes through a 120 amp breaker. That's a good indicator that to run it (with full motors) off of wall current, you'd need a power supply capable of providing 120 amps!

If winners never quit, and quitters never win, does it make sense to quit while you're ahead? - Billfred [more]
