    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.

    Yeah man fuses are cheap and as long as you have the right amperage you most likely will never blow one.

    My audio power won't fit in this fuse block any way I run a 0g wire from the battery for my amp.

    Lighting it the reason I'm buying one of these. I have a lot of lights coming in the near future :D

    Yeah with the price I'm thinking it might be close to 40 or 50 maybe more by the 15th. I hope Will as a lot in stock :D

    Yes, we'll do two different coupon codes, one for local pick-ups and one for shipped.

    No problem

    The 100amp CB is perfect paired up with this, as mentioned above I would not use it for high end stero equipment, I use one tied into my 5026 fuse box, and power the following off my aux battery off of it:
    Ham Radio
    CB Radio
    Fridge/Freezer
    Rock Lights
    LED Rooftop Tent Lights
    Power Inverter
    Aux Lights
    Air Compressor for OBA
    Water Pump
    Aux sockets

    I dont have much play on the battery clamps, nor the CB, but I can work out a deal if you want to call in your order once the GB closes and we PM the coupon codes.


    We do not recommend them, the reason for it is that we cater to many customers who travel to remote areas, if for some reason you get a short in your system, you can not easily find fuses, and sometimes a wiring short may be unseen, so it is easy to blow through your spare fuse. With the CB you can just simply re-set it and you're good to go, and if it trips again, start trouble shooting with out having to find spare fuses. The larger fuses are hard to find in Mexico, and other areas outside of the US.

    Again, you have to think like us, we have several customers that build up their trucks to drive around the world, or to remote locations for extended periods of time. Parts that are reliable are key, along with the availability of spare parts for the equipment in third world countries or other locations. The ST blade fuses are fairly common, so this fuse block passed our test.

    so forgive my newbness here, but is this a distribution block as well, as in I wire all my accessories into the fuse block and them can run one wire to the battery for power?

    Really should ground to chassis... I never really understood that rule back when I was installing but all the "pros" and more experienced installers all agreed with that... but on that same note you should also install a new ground wire equal to the size of wire that you add on the power side. Personally, I will be using an 8awg wire for both, mainly cuz that's what I've got lying around - I think i've got somewhere in the ballpark of about 200 ft of power and ground on a spool :)

    I'm planning on putting mine behind the factory fuse box under the hood (behind the battery) - photos will come on that when I get around to putting it in.

    Will put you down for a yes for now... as for the shipping issue, please send Will @ Sierra Expeditions a PM for that... the $46.xx that we're getting this for is with $4.95 shipping, which I would assume (but could be wrong) is for US shipping. Will has the #2 post on this thread, as well as a couple others but the #2 is pretty easy to get to.
