Anyone using this Servo Power Board from Servo City?

Do you have any experience using this Servo Power Board for power distribution to your servos and/or receiver? If so, what are you thoughts on its ease of use, reliability and what is your setup?

RE: Anyone using this Servo Power Board from Servo City?
 
Yes, I am using it. It is simply a bus bar to take the servo power load off the receiver. I am running dual redundant switches from dual A123 2300 packs into the power spreader for servo power. The only thing coming off the receiver is the signal to the servo so it sees none of the high amperage draw of the servo. When you see the construction, there is nothing to fail. I got the unsoldered kit and soldered it myself taking about 30 to 45 mins to complete. Far cheaper than the Smart Fly stuff but then it doesn't do as much either. (No voltage regulation etc.) In my case I didn't need anything more so it works out perfect.

Exactly, what I needed. I can add an inline regulator if needed in the future.
But for now will power with eneloops.
So ordered a couple.

Thank You for the Tip !
