P1000 Any suggestions for a bus bar?

[TumaloKeith]

After adding some lights and accessories, the battery is getting to be a mess. I'd like to add a simple Pos/Neg bus bar to for the accessories, then connect the bus with a to the battery with a 6 or 8 g wire. I was looking at this on Amazon. If someone had other suggestions, please let me know.

I installed a fuse panel, makes chasing down wiring issues easy.

Well that's just too good of an idea.
It really complicates things now, lets see 6 accessories, 12, 36 fuses?

HA! 6 fuses.

For power distribution from battery to a bunch of small to medium stuff (say 1 amp to about 25 or so), a fuse block is a good approach. Most will provide for a heavy conductor input for both positive and negative, then individual fused terminal for positive and as well as terminal strip for negative.

On Amazon or elsewhere, search <fuse block>. Any unfused wiring from the battery wants to be relatively short and very well protected, as if it comes in contact with ground, (think in an accident etc.) bad things like fire and welding will happen.
