With the car alternator running, it's 13.8-14.5V and can be distinctly higher or lower, including sudden spikes/dips, depending on operating circumstances. Automotive power supplies aren't simple things to do properly. Additionally, it would probably be more reliable to power the servos from your 5V regulator. Wiring harnesses are indeed part of electronics design. | |
