Robot battery power dies quickly #27

Closed Kukanani closed 6 years ago

Kukanani commented 6 years ago

We ran the arm for about 15 minutes, then attempted to raise the pillar. The battery died before the pillar reached full height, rendering the pillar and onboard computers inoperable

I would like to add a hardware label, but don't seem to have that privilege.

The power cable running through the pillar got caught on the top plate and snapped internally. The battery is normal. I have temporarily fixed the issue and will finalize a formal fix tomorrow.

The cable has been fixed and the aux battery is in place. Closing this for now.
