New product. I believe this is what I need to manage my battery wiring on my pontoon since I don't have a junction block type accessory panel.
Shipping kinda sucks.

I thought I saw something like this in Academy. Did you check with your local store? Fuses are a sure bet to save equipment that needs it. I only have fuses for my sonar and TM. The lights and radio and bilge pump and anything else I have a fuse on each so don't require one at battery. Good luck!

You should have a fuse at the battery. Remember, a fuse's primary purpose is to protect people, not equipment.Quote:

The negative bus is exactly like the oem terminal/fuse blocks on boats nowadays. Make all your connections at a common location for simplicity
That is what I have in my Jon boat. No place convenient in my pondtoon battery hold to mount a fuse panel or block.. I have to move some relays to remove the batteries from the battery hold. Tight squeeze.

I have individual fusing at the front of my boat via junction boxes on both port and starboard sides.

I really like the junction box!

This is the 24v side. I wanted 12v for the cig adapter just in case I needed 12v. The heat sink is a 24 to 12v D to D converter circuit that can deliver 5 amps. Might need to charge my old gps or something.Quote:
