Re: Question about Anderson PowerPoles
The 30A powerpoles will work just fine once crimped and housed. The contact area is the same and they'll behave identically to the 45A connectors. They might be a bit of a pain to connect to 12AWG...

Re: pic: Octocanum Module
I'd be a touch hesitant to use the force generated by the piston to say that this module will actuate. The rotation of the module about its pivot axis makes the problem a rotational one, rather than...

Re: SD540 Motor Controller
There's also no "I'm ambivalent about these features" option. "I do not like it, Sam-I-Am" becomes the default option, since the others are super positive about the product.

Re: pic: Octocanum Module
Going from one 4x2 to two 2.5x1.25 Colsons would save 0.4lbs per module on wheels. Probably a little over a half pound per module with resulting gearing changes.

Re: LED Strip Power
Would throwing a couple of 5v regulators in parallel work for your application? Something like 4 LM323's on a perf board (with appropriate filtering) should be enough for your application.

Select what you want to know about, hover for documentation, right-click and Go To Declaration for source code. Doesn't get much easier than that.
