tgross35 is an unknown quantity at this point
Is there an alternative to the PDB?

Hello all,

My team was looking to build a self-driving cart (anyone with experience on that, while I'm on the subject?) and would obviously need some way to power our motors. It doesn't make any sense to me to sink in $200 for a PDB to power about 4 motors and an Arduino (and some lights, and a DC/AC inverter) but the other option that AndyMark has is from the cheap and dirty kit, which doesn't support the 40A breakers. Does anybody have any suggestions? Even a fuse system could work, anything under $80 or so. Thanks!
