Bot Name: Cybug kit
Description: Cybug is one of the best kits I've seen. The only thing better would be a colony of them. I altered mine slightly by adding roller beads, a charging socket and power switch for emergency charge ups. I love watching it get hungry by switching polarity as the LED on top changes from red to green and he scuttles off to his charging station. The only problem with this guy is having enough room for him to roam, he really gets around!

Bot Name: Dennis The Hopper
Description: Dennis is a hopping robot modeled after one that Ian built. He is made of a freeformed 1381J Solar Engine, .33F Panasonic Gold Cap, pager motor with the weight left on, 24x33mm Panasonic solar panel, a fuse clip, and brass wire legs. I also attached a trigger lever to fire the SE early if I'm showing him off. :-) Total cost for this robot was around $12.50 US.
