Overview
Batteries let us take our projects on the go so we can use our cool stuff wherever we want. So with our own Battery Powered Contest we want to see what cool projects you can make that uses batteries.
Whether it's one tiny coin cell battery or enough to power a motorcycle doesn't matter. As long as there's a battery in there, enter it. We have lots of awesome battery-powered prizes to give away and are open to any useful or crazy ideas you might have.
So get to it, make something with a battery in it and be sure to post it by July 15, 2013. We can't wait to see what it is!
