The only ones I've seen used were like your option 1 but auto reset as opposed to manual reset.

ok so there is no need to get anything high quality, just stick with the basic inexpensive little auto reset breakers.

I was thinking the manual reset "might" be better if you have a problem because if it trips again after you reset it then you can safely investigate the problem and not burn anything up with it resetting every few seconds. I guess it was my electrical background thinking kicking in where if you find a breaker trips you locate the problem and don't just reset the breaker.

it just scares me to have something electrical turn itself back on if there is a problem but if its just tripped because the prop is stuck in the mud, then I can see how having an auto reset makes life a lot easier on you.
