Used mainly for awning light or just as extra 12 v outlet. Note small toggle switch,
this is for my rear cargo led light.

I have 70mm running between the crank battery under the bonnet & he auxiliary batteries in the pod. Starter & aux batteries can be joined by a manual switch to run the winch, hence the heavy cable. Compressor in the pod runs off the starter battery, & has a short run of 35mm cable supplying it. When running it draws around 35amps, but recommended fuse for it is 80 amps. If running cable along he chassis rails think about protecting it from flying stones. If the the insulation were sliced off things could get pretty hot pretty quick. I used the spiral wrap around stuff usually used to protect hydraulic hoses.
