Quick answer
Choose the AC Power Supply for BOLT+ & Blueprint Engineering for individual robot charging, and the AC Power Supply (indi Class Pack) for charging up to 8 indi robots simultaneously.
Why compatibility matters
Sphero offers different AC power supplies for different robot kits. Using the wrong adapter can damage the charging case or robot battery. The indi Class Pack charger is designed specifically for the indi charging case, while the BOLT+ & Blueprint supply works with the BOLT+ Power Pack and Blueprint Power Bit Multi-Charger.
Charging speed and capacity
The indi Class Pack supply outputs 5.5V and is built to charge up to 8 indi robots at once through the charging case. The BOLT+ & Blueprint supply is a standard replacement for individual power packs and multi-chargers, but it is not compatible with the original BOLT Power Pack.
Trade-offs at a glance
- BOLT+ & Blueprint Engineering Supply: Use this when you need to replace the power supply for a BOLT+ Power Pack or Blueprint Power Bit Multi-Charger. It charges one pack or one multi-charger at a time.
- indi Class Pack Supply: Use this when you have the indi Class Pack charging case. It charges up to 8 indi robots simultaneously, saving time in a classroom rotation. Check that your indi Class Pack case is the current model before purchasing.
- Compatibility Check: Neither supply works with the original BOLT Power Pack. If you have older BOLT robots, you need the AC Power Supply SPRK+ Power Pack (available separately). Always verify your robot model and charging case before ordering a replacement supply.
