P1000 Wiring list for future installs

[Fdxjettech]

Good Morning
Well, I have installed my dual battery system and its working or so it seems. Now I can begin to add accessories as the budget allows. I have decided to run a hot and ground buss under the hood.
What I could use help with is a list of things to have on hand so i can wire these things up as i purchase them without making multiple trips to the parts/hardware store every time. So could you guys give me your things you keep on hand for these type things. Ex wire rolls and gages. wiretapping devices, schematics, hardware. I would rather have my electronics shop fully stocked before starting my mods. links would be appreciated also. Thanks in advance

Black tape, liquid tape, heat shrinks, terminals/ connectors. Wire strippers and pliers. Your always going to need something else. Or the one you have will be to big to small or just one inch to short.

Wire loom - get the woven kind from Amazon. Much better than the hard plastic stuff.
I’m just working on installing my second battery but I ordered crimpers to be able to shorten the 6 gauge battery terminals or put a different terminal on when its not the right size (like for the stinger connection.

Velcro (rolled/tape style as well as patches or blocks), extra fuses in all different amperages, an inexpensive heat gun for heat shrinking (I try to avoid using an open flame for that), multiple rolls of wire in all different gauges AND both single color wire vs multiple wire (e.g., red/black). While some say always used crimped connectors for auto/mobile connections due to vibration, I do solder plenty of things, which means you need a decent soldering iron (mine switches from 20W to 40W), extra tips, and rosin core solder. I also ONLY use copper wire (stranded or solid) and do not use CCA (copper clad aluminum, as the latter sucks if you DO have to solder it.
