Indeed.
I have experienced the same thing when powering too many modules from a
900. One power rail drops and all the modules freak out. It didn't seem to
cause any damage, but it did freak me out too. Then it would start up again ok
if I cycled the power.
I haven't had any problems since I swapped in a much larger supply.
