The sPOD BantamX BX-MOD-84-G is a compact, fully programmable 8-circuit power distribution system designed to eliminate hours of wiring time for aftermarket electrical accessories. This modular system provides a clean, professional solution with just one ethernet cable running into the cab, eliminating the need for cutting, fishing wires, or tapping into your vehicle's factory electrical system.
Key Features:
- 8 circuits rated at 30 amps each at 12.5 VDC (expandable system)
- Fully digital controlled with built-in Bluetooth capabilities for smartphone control
- Current-sensing MOSFETs controlled by microprocessor - no fuses or relays to replace
- 16-position terminal block for easy accessory connection
- Dual RJ45 controller ports for Ethernet cables
- Integrated low voltage cutoff (LVCO) with optional override for battery protection
- Failsafe self-healing fault protection system (1.5 to 30 amps)
- 50 amp auto-resetting circuit breaker
- High-strand crosslinked copper battery cables with silicone jacket and nylon braiding (84 inches)
- Operates on 12VDC or 24VDC systems
- 8-position input terminal block for controlling outputs
- Comprehensive protection against overheating, over-current, shorts, reverse polarity, and field collapse
- Optional ignition control and safety lock-out for circuits 1 and 2
- Support for daisy chaining up to 4 BantamX units controlled by one touchscreen
- On-demand wireless software updates and upgrades
