  • Making a 12v control box to make power more accessible from the rear of my tub.
    Housing a fused switch panel for lights, extra anderson style plugs and USB's, this is the compact solution I envisioned.

    Hey mate I’ve got the same tub rack and love your setup with the fridge and false floor etc I’m looking to do exact same thing but just with a tonneu soft cover instead! I’m just a bit stumped with how to wire up the lights I haven’t got an auxiliary battery setup yet and I’m wanting to wire them up to the starter battery with a rocker switch on the dash and also reverse lights! How did you wire yours up? Cheers mate love the content! Keep it coming 🤙

      Cheers Ethan! Glad you like the content :)
      I'm not an auto elec so don't go just of my word.
      All I've done is used the dual core wire from the lights to the switch (+) and earth (-), then added a fuse on the positive into the switch.
      All earth's go back to the negative side of my secondary battery.
      I may add some relays later on but I think the LED's are low enough amperage to run just with the switch (again confirm this before doing it yourself).
      Thanks for watching 👍

    Does it still come out cheaper after buying the tools?

    • @Shenanigans4x4
      @Shenanigans4x4  2 роки тому +3

      Not if you include the tools no
      The assumption is that these tools and the wire would be needed anyway if buying a pre-built box to add in your accessories
      Always good to have handy also when out and about for any repairs
