    Any chance we could get the initials of the names on those labels since there is no way for us to read them? Thanks.

    I received my box today! Almost exactly 1 year and 1 month. To Skygear's credit, it is indeed nicely made. I'm not sure I wanna go through the hassle of rewiring all my stuff though as I already have a decent Blue Sea setup. I may put the Skygear box up for sale. Not decided yet...

    The box, the breakers or relays, the fuses, the wiring and labor associated with it and the expensive connectors. Well worth the $257 IMHO.

    Blanking on the name of the connectors, also the sheathing for all wiring.

    Go with the Bussmann, its a much cleaner product with a smaller footprint. I'm sure in the long run you will be more happy with it, of course unless your Blue Sea set up amazing or you cant stand to have Skygear's product in your truck lol
    Glad to see TW pulled through to get your product as ordered.

    I know that the bussman is a better product it's just the hassle to redo all the wiring. I just redid it all this past fall to incorporate the blues seas fuse box and a mount to hold my relays.

    I'd do the bussman because it takes care of all those relays and makes it cleaner!

    Those connectors (weatherpack) are expensive but worth it. That looks like about a 250$ setup to me, being someone that builds them.
