Seen as I can't seem to located place to purchase this at a reasonable price:
(
).
I'm currently building one, the specs so far are:
1) It can controller 8 outputs at 25amps (300w) per output (limited by connector I'm using https://deutschconnectorstore.com/product-category/multi-pin-connectors/dtp-connectors/, outputs can be bound together to controller larger loads. Max will be 60amps (720w) on all output. Tempted to switch them to use these connectors (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Waterproof-Electrical-Connectors-Socket-Marine/dp/B01DVQ2ANO) but that would limit each channel to 15amps. Each output is fused using a standard automotive fuse.
2) It's using mosfets so it can be used to dim LEDs light bars etc
3) It's bluetooth so you don't need to run anywheres into the cab
4) I'm thinking about building a lcd touch screen controller if you don't want to use your phone.
5) I can have it to automatically turn of lights on engine off etc
My questions is anyone seen another product like this for cheaper before I send off for the pcb making. Also anyone any comments about this just making a proof of concept at the moment.
