Powering Robot Controller without breaker panel, etc.
Currently lacking a robot to mount the camera on, we've mounted the camera on an Edubot that can drive around and simulate the larger robot tracking the target. We've mounted the full-size RC onto the frame, and we'd like to power the 12v input using 12v in AAs. We're going to wire a switch and a fuse into the circuitry so that we have some sort of control.

Basically put, is this safe?
