Yup.

We tripped the 120 amp a few times, with the judges, and the Innovation FIRST guy coming over all the time to make sure the robot wasn't going to blow.

Apparently you could hear it tripping in the stands as well.. it became very hot, and was smoking a bit. I don't think we had very many matches where we didn't end in a smoking robot due to the 40 amps and motors.

We replaced the 40 amp breakers about 6 times at the UCF regional, because they became shot quickly.

Place your attention entirely on my voice and try to ignore all the others. It is important to be able to focus on a single source of information while blocking out all the other things competing for your attention.
