I reciently aquired a Sumo Bot and was impressed by differences from the Board of Education board. With 10 easy plug in hO standard headers, it is much more robotics friendly. It is more compact then the Boe Bot, but easier to wire for sensors. Care has to be taken when mounting the battery pack under the circuit. First you should trim all the access solder pins on the solder connections. Then insulate with tape or self sticking sealer foam. I usually now use a mini blue low power DVM to monitor the batteries. A must if you plan to run motors alot. Now to see what this puppy can do

Here is a test video
