When my battery drill and driver get low on power, I swap a charged battery in. Whether it's AI or humans, BatteryBots(TM) or the common use Batbots(TM) as they will be known on the front lines, will roll into and/or fly into any fray, find their specific robot, exchange batteries and roll or fly out of combat back to get the rundown battery recharged.

What are you going to do about the Batbots?
