: What would cause a spike relay fuse to blow out? I have one here in my hand, a "souvenir" of regionals, as it were... I found it on the floor when we were leaving, and the little filament inside is broken. I didn't think that could happen on a spike relay. Any ideas as to what caused this?

Try using a red Spike as a fuse block for a 12VDC supply line (this is used on our war wagon, not our robot), and watch as an misinformed student plugs the battery ground directly into M-. POOF.
