Wondering if there is a PDB that I can use mounted near my battery that I can power a future Amp and possibly 2 other accessories rather than having several power wire eyelets bolted onto the battery itself ? Any suggestions?

I’m a big fan of these, used them several times! To use it for fogs etc wire everything to it in the engine bay and I usually use 2 or 4 awg wire for ground and hot wires run to a 40 amp relay attached to an accessory circuit so that the whole block shuts off with the truck, as well as an inline fuse Like the second link. Just keep in mind the max amp limit for whatever block you buy- I believe this one is a max of 100amps per block regardless of how many circuits are used
