Anyone got a recommendation for a 2 amp fuse?
Let's see if I am thinking what you are thinking.

You use all the power the motors give you, climp up the pole, hit the top burn out the fuse and replace after match and redo next match and so forth?

Cheaper and easier to replace a blown fuse then to have another switch on the bot to bring it back down. The issue I have of placing a switch on the bot to bring it back down the pole is, what if that switch trips or something, then you will not reach the top that match.
