Re: Main breaker tripping, dead CIM

My team also had a problem with our breaker tripping with our 6 CIM drive train. It only became a problem in the later matches when we were playing heavy defense or were getting heavily defended ourselves. What we ended up doing was cooling down our main breaker right before our matches. We used a canned computer air duster held upside down and then sprayed it into the opening of the breaker. This got it cold enough that it wouldn't trip in the match for the most part. Its not the best solution but it ended up working decently well for us.
