(...) Nah. Pressing the OFF button is OK. It's when it starts pressing the ON button that you have to worry. That's why one of my personal rules is "the deadlier the robot, the shorter the extension cord." BTW, not only is the 'bot nice, simple and (...) (16 years ago, 18-Sep-08, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I'd probably recommend the "LEGO Mindstorms Education base set" (URL) than the retail NXT kit or buying things piece-by-piece.
