Really tidys the job up.

Stripping van soon, new connecters & hot system, going to do something similar.

Plan to use a larger box, and use a copper connector block, like those you have in domestic.consumer unit. Take a 10mm wire fron battery to the connector. So when I need ti add a circuit, its just a matter of connecting to the block, inline fuse, and away you go ;D

there are easier fuse holders about, that only needs one live wire to do all 4 on oneside, but that one in the pic was the only one i could pic up at short notice.
