Wired or Wireless connections?

Hello everyone, new here and getting ready to do a major overhaul on my 2018 off road and want to know if there is any disadvantage to using wireless connections such has a trigger 6 for various applications vs conventional wiring whether it be for lighting or other stuff. Any recommendations are appreciated.

Thanks
Josh

I have had the trigger 4 and now the trigger 6, and the switch module likes to eat CR batteries like candy.

Also, it is not as shielded as they claim. There use to be a home depot that I drove by and every once in a while, my lights would all turn on due to bluetooth interference.

I had to add a kill switch which defeats the entire purpose of the trigger system.

Right now, switch panels like the auxbeam is so cheap, there is no reason to buy something else. I might switch to a auxbeam in the future.

Thanks for the info, this was one of my concerns on these wasn't sure if it was a issue. We used to have dome lights on our work trucks that all had the same remote freq and when you turn one light off or on it reversed the process for any truck nearby.
