Is There Any Way Of Powering A Jd Or Any Other Ez-Bot From Anything Not Battery

I know I am going to be asked about battery life no end of times, I just wondered if there was any other power source for limited motion. Like some kind of umbilicus that can bypass the battery, but still use the body with shoulder servos - would be hand for schools working with scripting.

Continuously Running Servos

Hi, I have two different projects where Roli is set to respond to the color red. One file works perfectly well. When I load the other, Roli's right servos start running immediately - no red ball visible anywhere. I deselected color tracking but the tread still runs.
