    I know the Blue Sea 12 volt outlets are rated for 15 amp. Believe that is a standard unless it's made from cheap chinesium.

    That’s why good compressors use battery clamps

    Funny thing about that-the wife was happier when I got 35's than when this came home... No way to win.

    bookmarked.
    It's a great place for it.

    I was thinking the smaller cubby on passenger side for a dist. block or "Y" splitter and a couple breakers.
    A feed line breaker under the hood.
    4ga. feed/(2)8ga. branches.
    Wire the DC plug to one branch and leave the other open.

    Form over function. The only thing that purpose-built machine is missing is portals. But he just got it, so we need to be patient.

    Think we might be twinning now. If we are check out this video to make it more fun. You can definitely handle them https://youtu.be/BerfYlBAWD8?si=5a0Wbz95WJoVKrtV


    I really didn't need to see that.

    I've been avoiding their site because they specialize in solutions for the lazy.

    Exhibit A: my tire valves for airing down. Maybe once my air hoses disintegrate or I cut off enough for field repairs........hmmmmm.


    As far as storing everything, I've got it all in a Pelican and it's bulky. Do I regret it? Kinda, but it works.
