 I'm sure someone somewhere worked [I]really hard[/I] on this and I congratulate them for the attempt. Unfortunately, its one of those things that should be taken down and recorded in the company journal as a bad idea. - Katie_UPS [more] |

Wiring Up the Bus (team 180)
Since lots of people on our team had laptops at the Palmetto Regional, we brought an inverter and a bunch of the robot's batteries. We were able to be charging several laptops at a time for the ten hour bus ride each way. This shows the mass of wires near the inverter and a power strip for plugging in multiple items.

We did this on the way to Phoenix with one laptop playing music at the loudest volume setting for about 5 hours. It totally drained 1 robot size battery. Going from 12VDC to ~115VAC back to 12VDC is kind of inefficient.
