Hey, sounds like an oportunity for someone. A huge solar panel (well, huge
compared to the RCX itself) with a cord that connects to the AC/DC power
input on the RCX. Probably only need to generate 9 Volts at an amp or so to
run.
Has anybody measured actual current consumption with 3 stalled motors ?
