• New NXT Battery Packs
The 2010 robot kits are being manufactured with DC batteries and chargers. The new battery will be standard in future robot kits. AC batteries and chargers will be available (while supplies last) for a year or two. The new DC batteries will work with any robot. However, the chargers are not interchangeable. LEGO Education is monitoring orders from teams requesting spare chargers to be sure they match their batteries and will exchange any chargers that are ordered incorrectly. All inquiries regarding exchanges direct to LEGO Education at Pitsco.
Here is a description with photos of the AC and DC batteries with their chargers. |
