Week 1 Progress

Battery Testing - We charged and tested all of our batteries. We found one bad one that we've removed. There are four batteries that have been marked for competition, and four for shop testing. Please do not use the competition batteries for practice.

Repairs - We repaired two of the chargers that had broken wires. If you are using the chargers please pull on the connectors NOT the cables. The wires are not strong enough to pull the large Anderson connectors apart.

New cables - A new camera power cable was created for the robot, allowing Ken to display his solder skills
