Now I have the WB tender in operation I wanted to fit a few toys like a little plotter and lights, It already has a battery to start the OB and it in turn has a small alternator to charge the battery and an ignition circuit but that's about it.
I think it was JFM that got me thinking when he said much better to have circuit breakers than fuses so you can debug and reset quickly. Was that going to be over the top for a little tender, but found this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-Aluminum-Waterproof-Blue-LED-Rocker-Switch-Panel-Circuit-Breaker-Marine-Boat-/262159856136?hash=item3d09f1f208:g:cMEAAOSw7FRWVYBO on ebay for a few quid as it came from Hong-Kong. Now linking it to the battery and I remembered JtB's birthday present and purchased some heat shrink connectors and I now have a power distribution system. Just got to add the labels that came with the switches as I add the kit
Fitting the Dragonfly is next [Well they were on offer at the Boat show
