How important is galvanic isolation?
I wouldn't have chosen to power it this way. Had been running on an old 0183 network with external power for about a year, and fully forgot that it could power over n2k. Was a surprise when I plugged it in. Honestly, I'm probably moving past the form factor of the pi, and going to a nice running Linux , but that needs time to set up, which I don't have much of right now. Thanks!

Well. Drats. That's no good either. I had the vague idea it was isolated, but I'll look up the documentation first, or otherwise I guess I'm going shopping. Thanks!

Well Drats. I am allergic to replacing components that should be fine, so I'll take it into the shop today and desolder the power connections.

How important is galvanic isolation?
Piggy backing on this. I have a PiCAN-M hat, which I don't want powered off the n2k bus, for a variety of reasons. Is there a way to not have that happen? It's too power hungry and it doesn't want to play nice with my display when running like that
