Hi

In order to power spotlights, LPG systems, electric fans etc I used the spare space behind the battery to install a power distribution system.

Relays and a common earth point are all located on the back of the battery box

That's a lot neater than the arrangement I have in place. Good work fella.

Great minds think alike. My work is not quite as neat as yours however it works for me. Voltage sensitive relay feeds a new fusebox for various add ons. Brake controller self resetting fuse, second battery circuit breaker and DRL controller all housed behind the battery. No chance of a flat battery if some things left on. The cover keeps everything looking tidy a

Very nice work Steve!

Mine's a bit more spread out, but similar (though not as neat).
There's a 140A circuit breaker in front of the battery feeding the dual battery controller.
I've got one of those cheap fuse blocks on the winch relay frame (only feeding spot lights atm), and in the rear there's a 10 way fuse block (50amp maxi-fuse).

As said it isn't neat, but it gives me a lot of flexibility.
