I agree that there are much faster charging methods, but the slow one has the advantage of simplicity (this was implied in the original question)... I wonder too how to design a connector with contacts that reliably carry 4 to 10 A currents and (...) (22 years ago, 23-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Yes Brian, and read my P.S. ;-) (...) This is not necessairly true. If you use the right charge method, load time less then 15 minutes, without degrading the batteries (even with positiv effect on the lifetime/capacity) is very well possible (...)

Some of us on the leJOS mailing list were discussing auto-battery recharging with the RCX. Here's some technical thoughts from Philipe Hurbain that might be useful to others. p.s. If anyone has anything to add to this please do. -*-*-*-*-*- I think (...) (22 years ago, 23-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | How much current from RCX ports
|
|
I see around here, people are playing around with diffrent types of things to put on the RCX output port. Like not orginal lights, motors, bells and so on. Some even puts several motors on one port. How much current can you drain from one RCX port? (...) (22 years ago, 19-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hello, Is there a way to make the RCX make the sound of ringing bell, such as heard at a level train crossing? If you could point me in the right direction, that would be appreciated. Thanks Michel Magnan (22 years ago, 18-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

thanks Ralf, this may be a very good starting point ;-) I'm considering to create a RCX simulator (if there isn't any), but cann't oversee how much work it is .... cheers, Stef Mientki (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
