Let there be light! Whooot! Clean up wires tomorrow and that project is done. All fused up like you guys suggested.
It draws 1.03 amps with all the lights and the gps/plotter on. I wonder how much the little meter draws? I'll leave it on and see tomorrow, Batts at 12.7 volts now.
And now we have time for a toast!

Ooh master switch!! I forgot that, but I'll get one on and 10 amp fuses for switches, and a 15 amp for the positive line. You guys have me all squared away. Thank you for enlightening with baby words :) That's what I needed. Hard to believe I fly a jet but can't wire in a 12 dollar box..hahahaha. I was misunderstanding how it worked causing darkness in the mind.

If it turns into a crowbar (this is a technical term) it’s shorting right across the battery. A fuse holder there is also a handy battery disconnect if you didn’t put in a master switch.
