I bought one for Mindstorms use.  Paid $80 and received a $40 credit.  I
used the credit to buy 2 battery boxes.  The camera eats batteries...  I'm
thing about using one of the battery boxes to wire a motor lead/diode bridge
to, and using the 6-cell LEGO battery boxes instead.  The camera can be
mounted to a plate using a standard tripod screw.

There's a catch -- it may be wireless in one sense, but it requires AC
power, so you're gonna have a cord.

I got one also. I think the batteries get drained even when the camera is not plugged in. Looks like the battery ox has a small circuit--maybe a voltage converter that is always on. -gyug (...) (24 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics)
