Changing Over To Lifepo4 Batteries

I am now seriously thinking about converting the ALTAIR robots over to LiFePO4 (Lithium polymer) batteries they are expensive but the advantages are so great that I just have to do the conversion!

Compatibility With Floor Robots

I'm looking at using this in class with my students. Is there a list of compatible vacum robots that EZ robot will work with? Limited budget, so I'd hate to go out and buy the wrong thing. The only robot NOT available is the iCreate Robot from Roomba - they won't ship to Australia.

Possibility Of Adding This Sensor To The ARC Controls?

https://www.amazon.com/Adafruit-Barometric-Pressure-Temperature-Altitude/dp/B00JHJB2V6/ref=pd_sim_sbs_23_9?ie=UTF8&refRID=1EJXY3ZRV7B6J5TN6HNT It would be cool to add a weather station to my InMoov. I think that this sensor would accomplish a lot of that. Would this sensor be something that you would be willing to add to the controls in ARC?
