I am about to install a 2nd battery in my pioneer and just wanted to make sure i wasn't missing anything. I have read the multiple Dual Battery Install post's until my eyes hurt and have got carpel tunnel from clicking the mouse or scrolling on the phone so much. I pretty much want all accessories running off of the 2nd battery with Key on power. I have wire, crimps, solder seal, and heat shrink already.

Ill be running the following
20" light bar (Already installed by dealer will move to aux fuse panel)
KFI stealth 45 winch (Dealer installed)
SSV Works stereo
Rear Pod Lights
Dome/Interior lights
Possibly add some rock lights.

Here is the parts list of what I have ordered or on hand so far.

True Dual Battery Connect & Monitor Kit

Blue Seas Fuse Panel
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001P6FTHC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=

Stinger SGP38 80-AMP Battery Isolator and Relay
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001HC6UJ0/?tag=sxsweb24-20

Mictuning 6 Rocker switch panel
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073S2896N/?tag=sxsweb24-20

Odyssey L terminal Adapters
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004QCEQO4/?tag=sxsweb24-20

The one question i have is I am pretty sure i have seen some setups with the a circuit breaker like the below link installed.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y4YFRH3/?tag=sxsweb24-20

Is this necessary? And what does it do? I assume takes the place of a fuse and eliminates replacement of them by just manually resetting.

If anyone see's anything i might be missing or has a better suggestion please let me know. I have gained a lot of knowledge reading the post on this subject from you guys already. Just want to do it right the first time.

Look's like you've got it wired, now where are you going the mount the fuse panel? I mounted ours on the hold down on the factory battery hold down bracket?

I am thinking of putting a small panel/plate in to mount it all to or remove the tool kit and put it in that area

I would not use that Stinger relay. I have one in mine and plan on swapping over to marine grade one. There are a few different guys on here who have had them freeze up because they get moisture in them.

Do you have a link to the one you will be swapping out too?
