battery & fuse box question

[Swede71]

Will be adding in a monthish a Warn Zeon Platinum 10000lb winch, 30" Baja LED Bar, Baja LED fog lights, will be upgrading my battery. Which one offers the highest cranking amps with lowest weight that can handle cold winters.

Also should I be considering upgrading my fuse box.

Thanks in advance.

Winch is generally run directly to the main battery, so no need for an additional fuse box there. Some folks use an auxiliary Blue Sea fuse box for accessories, and the additional power for lights could come off that box.

As for lightest weight battery...dunno. I'm sure there are some high end racing batteries, but shaving 10-20 lbs. isn't going to give you any appreciable performance gains on these trucks. I've been pleased with my Optima Blue Top as a secondary battery, fwiw.

If you're looking for one battery to run everything, iirc some folks have run a single, group 31 battery in the OEM location.
