Hello,
I am powering 8 high torque servos through the Adafruit Servo HAT (https://www.adafruit.com/products/2327) using a 7.4 Volt LiPo Battery.
At stall torque these servos can demand as much as much as 2.5 A each, which multiplied over 8 servos = Max 20 Amps total. If I approach this max current draw, will I damage my servo HAT? What is the max current that the HAT can safely handle at 7.4 Volts?
Is there any simple component that I can place between the LiPo battery and the Servo HAT that will limit the current delivered to the HAT, regardless of what the servos are drawing (at the expense of starving the servos).
Thank you!

Re: Adafruit Servo HAT Max Current
Why don't you ask on the Adafruit forum?
The most important leg of a three legged stool is the one that's missing.
It's called thinking. Why don't you try it sometime?
