Q1: How does a normal switch panel control 2 or more lights at the same time with one button?
A1: Connect the wires from both accessories to the same positive and negative outputs of the control box. Ensure that the accessories connected to a single circuit will not draw more power than the maximum for that control box circuit and the fuse for that circuit.
Q2: What's the maximum running current?
A2: The 8-gang Switch Panel is rated for 60A, and the 12-gang Switch Panel is rated for 80A.
Q3: When connect the battery, the power indicator is always on, will it cause battery loss?
A3: No. The standby current of this product is less than 3mA. A 60AH battery provides 833 days of standby power for the switch panel without charging it.
Q4: Can I connect negative wire to the common cathode?
A4: Yes
Q5: How do I know if the wiring is correct?
A5: If the power indicator is red on, means the connection is correct.
Q6: What is the function of the control box switch?
A6: The Control Box Switch provides two ways to obtain power: Connect ACC or Battery. Slide it to ACC, control box will obtain power from ACC; slide to the other end. control box will obtain power from battery.
It's recommended to obtain power from battery.
Q7: What is the type of Add-a-Circuit Fuse Tap?
A7: Small fuse tap.
Q8: Can I replace the fuses in the control box?
A8: Yes, BUT always use a new fuse with the SAME or LOWER amperage as the old one. For instance, replace a 30A fuse with another 30A or less; to replace a 5A fuse, do NOT use a 10A fuse.
