AC adapter vs battery pack
Ok, I know this is probably going to sound REALLY stupid but here goes....
Is it safe to use an AC adapter with the correct plug and voltage instead of the battery pack during testing and programming at the desk? I would then only use the battery pack while the beast is on the loose.
I am building a bot using the Board of Education and just don't want to do anything to fry my BS2 or BoE board. I have been a computer guy but am only now learning the guts-type electronics.![blush.gif](http://forums.parallax.com/images/smilies/blush.gif)

Stick with it. Lots more fun to have command of both sides. (Pun intended.<g>)
