Wits' End
Hi there folks here comes another edition of "Joey needs a real job".
I went back and forth a few times trying to decide which system to ultimately go with for my system as I asked it here:
https://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-tech/221311-hellroaring-vs-national-luna-vs-powergate.html
I ultimately decided to go with the Hellroaring 95150B. Now I didn't see this installed anywhere else in search. For those that are not familiar, the 95150B is the one that is used for when your amperage is going to be above 80A (which mine will when I FINALLY install my 150A alternator using Photoman's alt kit/bracket). This unit also gets rid of the sensor wire and the middle lug. There are now only two lugs on this with three smaller threads.
In my particular situation I decided to go with Starter Side Isolation. The reason for this is because I will have a bunch of stuff running off the aux. battery instead of running of the main. I wanted the main battery to be for the standard vehicle functions. In a short amount of time I will be adding a third battery as a true "back-up" battery ala 450 DUDE:

I started with getting the second battery tray from CDan and the used Slee's washer bottle kit. I wont go into those installs because they have all been exhaustively documented.
I need a good location for the BIC. I decided on the back side of the aux. battery nearest the fender. For the bolts I followed the previous install thread advice and used fender washers on the backside. I had a few conversations with Mike at Hellroaring and he suggested I use (2) 80A circuit breakers (or fuses) on both batteries. So I decided to go with the Blue Sea 80A Circuit Breaker from Dave's Marine because...well....they were the cheapest I could find:
Blue Sea Systems 7114 Circuit Breaker 80a
