 Wow, almost seems unfair to have that many nice people in one place. Isn't it possible to overload on cool? - Molten [more] |

Re: [OCCRA]: REALLY weird robot behavior
surferacf -
First of all, In this particular case, the answer is NO! The individual fuses won't "blow" before the circuit breaker cuts out. The fuses protect certain things and the circuit breaker protects other things -whenever conditions occur that could result from shorts and high current draws. Second, You really don't know what amount of current is being drawn because when you stall the motors (which is what occurs in a pushing match or very inefficient drive systems) - the current goes very high, very fast! Hope this helps, Mike Aubry
