In order to protect the RCX from any type of power problems, would it make sense to disconect the RCX from the batteries first and have it run from an alternate power supply? or would this make it too complicated? I know little about electronics, is (...) (23 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
