We will be making a mount...just want to know what is everyone is using so we can try to include it in our design.

Blue Sea 12 circuit fuse block, with Blue Sea circuit breaker.

Awesome. That's what we already ordered.

S-Pod or switch pro's

I'm using a Switchpro and Bluesea 6-circuit fuse block (for wiring organization).

One request if you decide to use the same mounting holes as the Pelfreybilt tray would be to either add some gussets to the mount, or add a "leg" that supports the tray from below to prevent flexing.

You can kind of tell from this picture, but the tray does not hold itself perfectly upright and flexes with some weight on it due to the thin sheet metal that it bolts to. So far everything is still bolted in tight but time will tell how this holds up to bumps and vibrations...


Another request would be to keep the bolts exposed on TOP of the mount rather than below. The tray that i have bolts from underneath and is a huge PITA to mount since you have to reach underneath and line everything up without dropping the bolts inside the engine bay.



That's my 2-cents!

A lot of people run the Bussman relay/fuse set up. The wires come out the bottom and they do make a riser to mount on, well, mounts but without it, you'd need a hole in the bottom so it fits flat.

I run nothing at the moment as I'm waiting for either a SwitchPros GB or get motivation to build my own set up.

I use the blue sea block as well.

Right now it is screwed in to fuse cover with very short self-tapping. Would love to have a better mounting situation.

Blue Sea Systems 5025 ST Blade Fuse Block - 6 Circuits with Negative Bus and Cover

Blue Sea 12 circuit.... But... room for other dual battery components would be a plus... ACR, in-line fuses, breaker... the more room for these other items the better. I had trouble finding space and ended up making two other mounts out of starboard (one over the Aux batt and one over the stock fuse box <- not ideal). Even something with more than one level would be useful, say the 12 circuit parked on the top and space underneath to mount the in-line fuse or other component that you don't need immediate access to below. When you have a compressor mounted, then adding in the Aux air pump bracket, it limits your space when running dual batts.

Just my thoughts.

Hey everybody, be forewarned, this may be a stupid question. I am running the Switchpros unit and am wondering if there is any need or real benefit (other than wiring organization) to run a Blue Sea fuse block. Thanks in advance!

Can you send me some pics asap? We will be working on this next week so as much input as possible is awesome.

Also links to the other components so we can purchase them for the mock-up. :-)

I don't have this answer but I'm sure some of the other guys do. My hubs isn't nearby so I can't ask him till later.

Can you send pics of your set-up? I will show it to my hubs.

I will pass that on. Didn't know Pelfrey made one.

Sure

Shred_Head - I suggest you put some protection on those wires as they pass through the square holes in that plate. I can see that some are chafing and will eventually short out on that plate. Some type of sheathing like snake skin or spiral wrap would suffice.
