…. Let’s add maintenance windows to, you know, make sure it stays working. First sunday every month?

You want to perform maintenance during football? Can’t we just buy two and do in-service maintenance during the week?

This kind of depends on the original question.

what happens?

I mean, if there needs to be lube or something... and in any case switching over requires some down time...

What kind of button mashing bot are you building that you are worried about lubricating your actuators? It’s really not that hard to implement a lube tube that dispenses a small amount on a set frequency. Then you just have to monitor lube levels, tune your lube tube, and replace consumables whenever.

I’d be more worried about maintaining the button, to be honest. That’s a black box that we have limited control over, it’s a single point of failure and it’s mission critical. Bad combination.

... "actuator"... is that what we're calling it now?
