Failure of the Raymarine autopilot linear drive M81134 24v

Converting my Amel 54 to lithium batteries: what I did, what I like and what I don't like (after one year of full time live aboard use)
With regard to Yes, this is a risk. One way to reduce the risk is to have a MasterShunt in the battery box. This is what we did. When a MasterShunt is present on the MasterBus, the Alpha Pro regulator

A54 Anchor wash pump
I don't know if the 54's native pump has special characteristics compared to a 53 pump, but I would be remiss if I did not point out that when we bought hull Nr. 350 in 2012 it came with a Shurflo wit
