Picked up a beast of a power supply at BattleBots - it puts out up to 125 Amps and is adjustable from 8 to 14.5 Volts. Perfect for powering several Astroflight peak chargers, or for charging Hawker Genesis batteries fast. Weight: 8.2 kg (18 lbs)

Available from Brian Nave of Team Logicom

Got a nice Christmas present from BattleBots - four of the Radio Control KillerHurtz toys made by Tiger Electronics. Great fun. Tank-style steering with the two transmitter sticks (non-proportional), with two extra buttons - one gives full speed ahead, the other high-speed spin. No independant control of the axe, it just pecks as it goes forward.

Only available in the US at the moment, from Walmart, Amazon, Target etc.
Shown without the black side wedges here. If these are fitted, they can be knocked off in battles, representing damage.
