Why did Dr Gero make himself so weak?

Dr Gero could have made himself as strong as 17 or 18 yet he chose to have himself built as a less efficient energy absorbing model. I thought he was supposed to be a genious?

the energy absorbing tech is easier to integrate into a biological body. thats why 17/18 have very little memory before being transformed. dr. gero wanted to make sure that after he became a cyborg, he was still himself. thats my opinion on the matter, but nothing says for sure one way or the other
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

for those that blindly follow word of god

I have no freaking clue. Lunar, that's the best answer I ever heard, it's plausible, and it sounds sweet as hell. I like it!

Sounds pretty good to me; he did mentiuon in the anime that the energy-absorbing models were easier to control.

has anyone ever stopped to think that maybe Trunks just bought his sword somewhere or something? There's nothing really special about it.

Well it did manage to slice Frieza into a shishkebab so it must've been packing more power than your average blade. Hell even Zelda's sword couldn't pull off that ****.

I don't believe in power levels after the Frieza Saga. :D
Now, there's an idea.

He had Cell, the ultimate android, to get the job done. He doesn't need to do much at all after Cell is hatched.

Cell wouldn't have been hatched until about 25 years after Gero's death. So I don't see that as being plausible.

Perfect explanation. I mean if he wasn't himself, he wouldn't be a genius any more and could have been probably scared that Cell would have absorbed him.

Release it Gohan! Release everything! Remember all the pain he's caused... The people he's hurt... NOW MAKE THAT YOUR POWER!!!!
