Shield Cell Surge

Now the shields them selves require a large amount of energy to run and when something such as a shield cell is used, my guess is that it very quickly pumps a massive amount of energy into your ship. My suggestion is that because of this, when used, your weapons or boost or something are temporarily locked and a warning appears with the sound effect, "Warning, Energy/Power Surge Detected, Master Switch Enabled" as firing your weapons would blow your ship's circuits due to the large overflow of energy coursing through your ship.

Power surges themselves could also be used in other situations like after a railgun or plasma accelerator is used as it draws a vast amount of power in a short time, causing a system surge and would temporarily disable functions of your ship.
