Smile Re: Servo shifting a dewalt

Be cautious on how many servos are used, as they can drain the backup battery quickly if you shift a lot. We use a charging circuit now instead (custom circuit) as we have had problems with draindown using only two servos to shift. Would recommend you install a charging circuit that is powered from the main battery to eliminate that potential problem with the number of servos you plan on using.
