[QUOTE="condor22, post: 551740, member: 1932"] True, but they are only fitted finger tight at the moment (trial fit). I'll fit all the plugs with wire and terminals first (with extra wire) then route them neatly before terminating at the fuse block, cctbkr and controller. Re voltmeter, I have a BM PRO on the battery which gives me volts, amps in or out and Aux Bat SOC on my smart phone. However as a guide, I also have a plug in voltmeter I can use in a spare Anderson etc. Of the 4 fused outlets, the Engel and Oven will be connected all the time. The Brass Monkey Fridge will only be fitted when I'm off prospecting and then usually only on the trip from S.A. to VIC. Once there it will go into the van and operate on van battery. The 4th connector is a spare that I can plug in a box I have from the Home of 12 V with cig sockets to charge detector batteries if needed and thus the little V meter. I also have another Anderson outlet just inside the tailgate directly connected to the Aux Bat under the false floor which is used to power a water pump when I transfer H2O from jerries to van tank. I'm changing its fuse to heavier rating so that I could use that outlet for my air compressor to save going under the hood to the start bat. (engine running of course) :) [/QUOTE]
