EV3 Brick
The EV3 Brick requires six AA/LR6 batteries if the EV3 Rechargeable
Battery is not used. Alkaline or rechargeable Lithium Ion AA batteries
are recommended. The AA batteries option is a good choice when
a little more weight is desirable in your robot.
To install the AA batteries, remove the battery cover on the back of
the EV3 Brick by pressing the two plastic tabs on the side. After you
have inserted the six AA batteries, attach the battery cover again.
