    Hello! For the Phase 1 White Paper, the Challenge Rules document says the submission must include the "Completed Prototype Status Update spreadsheet." I can't find anything about this spreadsheet. Maybe I'm missing something, but I assume a project plan would be more suitable at this stage?

    Hi, does adding a team member on the website provide legal support or similar benefits for the team member(s)? I want to outsource the tasks in the project to some employees, I do not want to add them as team members. I mean I have the idea, then I want to outsource the tasks to several engineers and not join them to the team, Is it ok? If the team leader submits the forms and gets the prize, what is the advantage of adding team members to the website?

    Hi.

    Few questions:

    - It is mentioned 2 100 AH battery. Does it mean 2 pieces of 100 AH battery? In that case what is the battery voltage, 12 V? These batteries will be powering only precipitation measurement device or also other equipment's (telecommunication etc) present at site? If others also using the same battery, how much power do they consume?

    - Will it be possible to get the list of manufacturer and model numbers of existing devices that are currently being used?

      Hello Mohammad, here is the answer to your question:

      The system will be two 12V 100 AH batteries connected in parallel essentially creating one 12V 200 AH battery system. For the purpose of this prize competition the stated battery requirement can be considered to be powering the precipitation measurement device and data logger alone.
