At that meeting we have reserved the Science Alive Technology room that has 30 seats for hands on working with Lego nxt robots (15 I think). No previous experience is required and I'm confident that the evening will be interesting for newbies and old hands alike. We'll allow plenty of time for show and tell, getting to know each other and general chat too. Further details are on <a target="_blank" href="http://kiwibots.org">http://kiwibots.org</a> , if you would like to let me know how many of you there will be in your party I
can register you for the nxt session at $4 per
person. Places are filling up fast, only 26 to go!<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Richard Jones<br></div><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Steve Martin <stevemartin@formation.co.nz><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Christchurch Robotics <chchrobotics@lists.linuxnut.co.nz><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Thursday, November 6, 2008 10:22:50 AM<br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> Re: [chbot] Batteries for Robotics Projects<br></font><br> <style></style> <div><font face="Verdana" size="2">Hi Richard,</font></div> <div> </div> <div><font face="Verdana" size="2">My young son is interested in robotics.

I'll bring them along to the December 17th meeting. Note that the lithium cells require a current limited constant voltage charger (expect the cells to catch fire or explode if mistreated).
