    No power. The circuit is open (momentary normally open switch). Fuse blows at a hint of a short circuit. But yes your concerns are valid because unlike an automobile the common (-polarity) has no ground. No where for them pesky electrons to exit other than what's inside the can. Gas!!! So I...

    3D servos what kind? ?

    As a fellow veteran I say thank you for your sacrifice and hope the remainder of your days are filled with people who care and actually help you. Not to distract from who may be helping but Blue Bird has a wide variety of cost conscience servos starting at around 20$ for 120oz torque metal...

    A lot of fellas do discard gaskets but I personally like them. They allow me to neatly apply the sealant and when it comes time to remove, the thickness of the gasket, allows my knife to separate the joined pieces with out scarring the surface's. Of course prepping all over again for reassembly...
