R602       *Other batteries are only allowed for peripheral devices and LEDs only. COTS USB battery packs with a capacity of 100Wh or less (27,000mAh at 3.7V), with 5V/5A max output or 12V/5A max output using USB-PD per port, and batteries integral to a self-contained camera (e.g., GoPro style camera) may be used provided they are:

A.      connected only using unmodified COTS cables,

B.      charged according to manufacturer recommendations,

C.      securely fastened to the ROBOT,

D.      not supplement power to any of the ROBOT actuators, and

E.      not used by any devices receiving control signals from the ROBOT control system (i.e., COTS USB battery packs must remain electrically isolated from the ROBOT power systems.). Exceptions to part E of this rule are:

i.      powered USB Hubs, and

ii.      ROBOT CONTROLLER smartphones.

For example, a REV Blinkin powered by a COTS USB battery pack cannot be controlled by signals from a REV Control or Expansion Hub. Any device receiving signals from a REV Control or Expansion Hub must be powered by the main ROBOT battery.
