Hello,
I have just bought some metal gear servos for the robot I am working on. When I go to plug in the servo into the EZ-B it just causes the board to keep shutting down. Is it drawing too much voltage or current?
It is these two Kookye Servos:

Have a look at the following tutorial, specifically steps 4 and 5 about different power supply’s...

I see this often on the forum for people who purchase cheap servos to save a buck. But it ends up costing more in the long run because you’ll find power sources drain quickly, they’ll vibrate and be noisy, generate a TON of heat and overall discourage the build.
You won’t find servos as efficient and reliable as the ezrobot HDD’s
That really sucks when you buy something (no matter the cost) and it turns out to be junk. The heavy duty digital servos offered by EZ-Robot are the best for the money. Can't beat them. They also have an incredible lift of 19 kg/cm. Need to check out the video on this site.
Anyways I was just supporting our local hobby store. From a small town and would like to keep them in business. I am sure the servos from ezrobot are awesome. Seems like they only put out good stuff.
Now I can only think of rainbows and buttercups... and I'm not sure what buttercups they are talking about but I am thinking of the ones with peanut butter.
