Re: Circuit Breakers Block (JEF-531D)

We were concerned with weight as well. The weights are as follows:

Maxi Fuse:420g (14.8oz)
Ground Stud:103g (3.6oz)
Power Distribution Block:40g (1.4oz)
Total: 563g (19.8oz)

Last Year's Distribution Panel:442.6g (15.6oz)

Also to be kept in mind: additional 6 AWG wiring is needed for each distribution to and from each new part compared to the two 6AWG needed for last year's bot; this years system would require more weight in that sense.
