   (...) For future, LEGO's educational division does sell 3m LEGO wires. (...) A 1.0 RCX that allows you to power the setup from an outlet is ideal for this. If it ends up being battery-based, you will have to adjust the power level as the batteries (...) (19 years ago, 28-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

     (...) Wow! That's quite a long cable. Is this the right product? I only found it using Pitsco's search box; it's not listed in any LEGO section as far as I could tell. (URL) (...) My original setup's RCX is a 1.0 with the AC adapter. The rails are (...) (19 years ago, 28-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, FTX)

      (...) I got to try my program tonight. It wouldn't compile, claiming EVENTTYPEHIGH and EVENTTYPEPRESSED were undefined. Eventually I figured out that I had to set the target flag -TRCX2.

     (...) (URL) (...) I bought some alligator clips to use with some 24-guage wire. I'll become impure just this once, but I won't resort to willful LEGO destruction. :) (19 years ago, 1-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, FTX)

   (...) That would solve my current umbilical problems. At that length I'd actually be encouraged to shell out some spondulics. Steve (19 years ago, 28-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
