## Questions & Answers

**Q: One customer mentioned the need to tape the cards to the surface. What surface is best? Is taping really necessary?**
A: Taping isn't necessary, however, it helps keep the color cards in place so they don't move around when indi rolls over them. A hard, smooth surface is recommended.

**Q: What size battery is the lithium ion battery? Is it a button battery?**
A: The indi robot contains and weighs 14.1g. For more details, please contact support@sphero.com.

**Q: Where can I find more indi robot cars?**

**Q: what is the difference between the student kit and at home kit besides the case and rubber color tiles and fewer tiles in student kit?**
