RCX/NQC motor stall detection??

  I've seen some posts on a current sensor apperently
built into the cybermaster system, but haven't seen
such mentioned relative to the RCX.
  But when you download with NQC, it reports the
current battery voltage (assuming this is the RCX and
not the IR tower's battery it is reporting on).  When
excessive drain is seen the voltage should drop pretty
dramatically.  Is this voltage value available to a
(NQC) RCX user program?

(...) Sadly, it is not available to the NQC user. There is an opcode called "get battery power", but it sends the battery voltage to the PC rather than storing the voltage in a variable. -Kekoa (25 years ago, 19-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)
