Multiple connections at battery terminal
Hey guys,
I am looking for some solutions as to what I can do to create additional connections to the battery terminal positive lead.
I currently have AMP steps and 2 fan controllers for my e-fans connected to the stock bolt/nut on the terminal clamp. This have pretty much taken up all the available room on the bolt.
I am going to be adding 2 pairs of offroad lights and in the future I wouldnt mind running some better audio equipment.
What can I do? Special Terminal Clamps? Replace that bolt with a longer one? etc...

For the electrical items, you can run a single wire to a Centech or Fuzeblock external fuse block.
It will make termination of the electrical items easy, for the smaller AWG wire.
The larger wire, one of the audio power and ground block sets would work good.
You might want to consider both, as trying to splice 12 or 14 AWG in the audio block might not be a good idea ( could be too loose ), and the external fuse block would remove the need for all the inline fuses for the other gear.
