Just wondering what most VP-X owners are doing and what Vertical Power recommends on grouping the switch grounds together.
I can see pros and cons for both grouping grounds and keeping separate grounds.
Running individual grounds to the Forest of Tabs:
Grouping grounds together and running one wire to the Forest of Tabs:
If one were to group the grounds together, I could see a couple ways to do it:
a. Wire each switch's ground to the next, placing 2 wires in each terminal and the last terminal goes to the Forest of Tabs.
b. Add a terminal block of some sort. One line gets grounded to the FoTs and the other terminals go to each switch. (probably not the ideal method since it doesn't buy you much)
Thoughts?
Thanks!

Running individual grounds to the Forest of Tabs:
- Lots of points of failure, but any single failure only takes out one device.
- Adds a bit of weight
Grouping grounds together and running one wire to the Forest of Tabs:
- Fewer points of failure, but a failure could take out many or all devices.
- A little less weight
