Is it possible to power multiple NUCs, or other onboard computers, on the Daisy Hexapod?

In our standard configuration, if you need to power a second NUC, we recommend using the accessory DC-DC converter to power it, using the 12V output. Alternatively, we recommend attaching another DC-DC converter of some sort.

If you don't do any of the above steps, you may see one of your computers or other components randomly shutting down, as you might be drawing too much power.
