JK Gear and Gadgets I was wondering what to do when the time came to add accessories. This is really clean and safe. A lot of us don’t realize the hazard of unprofessional wiring. When connections get loose and arc....... or when moisture gets into a wire because it was not sealed at the terminal..... all of that leads to failure - possibly a fire. Not to mention trouble shooting. This is the way to go!

C J Mueller exactly!! And so many people don’t realize the need for relays and properly fused circuits. This takes a lot of the guess work out!

Just installed 12 Oct '20 and now it includes a jumper for the circuit breaker...well done S-Tech!

Ben, I used one of their 4 switch panels when I installed the rollbar. Had to get the switches off the A pillar. Already had a relay box so they sold me just the switch panel which worked awesome. Great company! Thanks for the vid!

Thanks Ben, for this video and the discount code from TTO. So far very impressed by the company and how professional they are and the attention to detail all the way down to the placement of stickers on the box. Definitely raised the bar.

Love the look of this switch system, definitely going on my mod list

Awesome video!!! I am wanting to get a 6 switch from my 09 JKUS I want to add lockers, lights and an air compressor this system looks awesome

Another great video Ben, maybe you should consider a part 2 showing how you route the wires from your accessories and how they terminate and connect at the control box.

use the circuit breaker for what it is , put the the trigger wire on load side, switch on/off when needed

What a great option to aux switching instead of deleting the media section for aux switching, thanks

I have been looking for something like this. I am so glad I found your channel. Also I drive a Taco

sweet mate looks the goods! Thanks for the vid 👍

This video was perfect 👌 thanks for sharing .

if you want to be able to do ignition, or do a bypass. you can hook that lead to your M9 lead and put a switch in between BAT+ and that, flip the switch and you can use your switch board whenever

Pro tip* drill a drain hole on the bottom side of the switch panel just in case water leaks in from the Freedom Top. Learn from my bad experience...lol

Hey love your vids man keep up the great work, I had an idea for your red lights on the bottom always staying on, what u could do instead of running that little red wire straight to the battery with the big wire run the little one to a switch inside which acts like a main power to all your switches which will turn them off until you flick the switch then they all are on. That's what I did in my car just to keep my battery from dying I eana main switch to activate all the other switches and works amazing so u still have the option to run lights when the car is off

Very cool man👍

You could use a light bar wiring kit to basically open and close the circuit going to that switch panel so it won’t kill your battery but I guess it kinda defeats the purpose. Or make one of those switches kill and open it

I just used the Code Thanks Ben!

I've been running the S-Pod system since they first his the market and love mine, dunno is yours has the same thing as mine does, but to the left of my first switch there was what looked to be a screw in fuse/ reset looking button. I didn't like the lights bring on all the time and was looking at it one way to figure out how to shut them off. To my surprise that fuse/rest looking thing turned out to be an on and off switch for my lights on the pod. Nowhere in the instructions did it say anything about this. I didn't notice it right away cause it blended in with all my black plastic and the black on the aluminum switch pod. Maybe something to see if yours has the same type of small button??

What are you going to do with the A pillar switches? You could use one of those to control the small hot wire to the S pod so the systems energized on demand regardless of ignition on or off. I'm running the Apollointech system with the built in ammeter and love it. I did install the fuse tap that came with it, just one more level of protection in case of a short to ground. Needing the ignition on has not been an issue for me. I do like the way their switch bank mounts, mine has the bracket over the footman's loop and it interferes slightly with the freedom panel latch but not enough to hurt anything. The one thing I want to figure out if possible, is how to put a dimmer on the switch bank, they are fairly bright at night it would be nice to tone them down a bit.

Looks good Ben how many amps is the. Circuit breaker

Ben, do you think the 24 inch battery cable for the 60 amp breaker is long enough if I mount the switches where you mounted them inside the cab?

Great video I'm watching it to see how you cleaned up the wires and used the relay box. As far as the little lites staying on I had the same issue. I went back and added a small toggle switch onto the switch panel. So far that has worked.

Don’t forget to show the next review video on this!

Any issues with water getting into the switch panel with the top off?

Thank you!

What Jeep model do you have? It's super clean

So how often do you run your rock lights and air compressor with your engine turned off?

I have a question that nobody has been able to answer for me yet or if it is possible. I have a enclosed cargo trailer with several lights inside and out that are hooked up to switches and a battery so it can run lights without truck. The lights on the back of the trailer are hooked up to a switch in trailer but we want to also hook the lights to our reverse wire from truck so they come on when we backup. Do I need a relay or would a 3 way switch work? I figured with truck battery and trailer battery I would get some kind of back feed to me 2 way switch that I have now.

Yeah... very nice install, but (EE here talking) that wire link between the circuit breaker and the power source will not handle 60 Amps... and thus it becomes the "fuse" in the series circuit. You might want to fix that. I would use minimum #6 gauge and #4 if it's really hot where you climb.

Run a switch for the trigger wire and put it where the 12v outlet is?

how do you hook up your diff lockers to those lights?

Used the discount code to order mine should be delivered soon set mine up custom also went with red and blue switch’s blue for lights red for future lockers also side question how’s the aux beam rock lights holding up for ya I have a 03 Tj I’m Ls swapping on 37’s

Each switch should have it's own fuse no? I just bought a 4 switch toggle set up and they say daisy chain the positive terminals as well as the negative ones and to have one line for each coming out of the end terminal, one for positive lead, one for negative lead, however each switch is rated at 20 amps, so each switch should have like a 15 amp fuse, not one fuse in the lead coming out for all 4 toggle switches, so Im stuck not knowing what to do?

You said earlier you had A-pillar switches. Have you thought about routing the new multi-switch system through one of the A-pillar switches to kill the power to the multi-switch?

I see you already have extra switches mounted on your pillar Are you going to keep those as well ?
