where you can see the most current up to date commonly bought things used by myself and other sloppy members

Sloppy Amazon Ideas list

I flat out love these 150amp bus bars for installing powerful equipment and running multiple hot leads easily, i usually end up running a short leg of the battery to one post and out to the starter with the other, also usually running the alternator right to one of the posts

these are awesome for isolating links and or splitting large power connections or making connection charging points for large battery wires etc

another one i use all the time with the buss bar is a 5 pack of five wire relays and sockets

Love these terminals

bussman sealed mini fuse and relay panel

I really like these except for the form factor can be a little tall once you use their holder and waterproof lid. Make sure to put some foam in that lid and put it on tight if you are tracking the car as it will help keep relays from bouncing out from vibration.

I switched to using this line

They have a lot of different options. Key note is they use the same cavity seals as the bussman units but require the "tanged" terminals.

I also like them because I can use these smaller relays when I don't need 35amp so I can fit more in a smaller footprint.
