Yes. I think there were four jags, but no motors running. No compressor and I don't think the radio was powered either. The team was just leaving the board powered while they made programming changes and I wondered how long they could expect a battery to last. We develop a control board in parallel with mechanical fabrication. The current hungry parts are in the other room for most of the early fabrications.

Re: Average Current Draw

A couple years ago we built an electrical board that hooks to a track on the ceiling I pull side to side. We put about 8 motors on speed controlers, 2 spikes 1 for compressor (not hooked up just for code visual) one for motor and a bunch of limit switches and the crio and PD and side car and a potentiometer. I hook up one battery and this usually will last me running motors and things for a week or more.
