Let borgs change their batteries themselves

[Ultimate Shrek Fan]

Start with a cell: indifferent
Change themselves: kinda good, but I would prefer roboticists had any function at all at this point, still, that's an issue outside this
Ability to communicate, even if messed up: Y E S
ok that's all

Yes. They should be able to speak locally but not broadcast over the radio. 

Also if you get stuck without a cell as long as there is an AI you can still chat with robot talk.
