AHHH that's what the fused terminals are for!!! Thanks again for the extra info on this part of your product. Now I need to wire my ham to the fused terminals.
What are your thoughts on adding the garmin power switch kit to the house battery on a sprinter to handle exterior driver lights, scene lights at camp and interior task lights?
We have done that for customers before! Like anything else monitor the battery state of charge so you don’t over draw it and you’ll be good! PS: do the math on your lights amperage draw to make sure it is less than you are charging your second battery with. If you draw 40 amps of power for lights and only charge at 25 amps you’ll eventually have battery level issues as it’ll slowly drain with the lights on, even while driving!
@@BlazeOffRoad can’t wait! Would be awesome to see a break down of everything you’re connecting to the power switch as well. Looks like the updated dual system has a backlight bar too! Genius!!
@@DallasRSnider it absolutely does have a backlight bar! We find that more and more people are running backlighting so it feels like a necessity on these larger kits.
Is there any possible way for you to show an install for a 2021 or earlier Tundra? I have the the Trigger 4 system which for me world fairly well, but I'm really considering the Garmin switch. I have front lighting and a decent sound system. I might be possibly expanding the lighting.
The Gen 2 Tundra install is almost identical to the Tacoma and 4Runner install, expect there are no factory mount points, so we recommend using Riv-Nuts for this install! We have had a number of customers go this route, with no issues.
I’ve got a single power switch at the moment and was looking to buy your two switch 3rd gen Tacoma kit so that I can expand in the future. Can the two switch kit operate with just one power switch installed? Or will there be issues if there isn’t two switches installed?
Great question! Yes, you can use the dual kit with one switch and add another whenever you would like, as it comes with everything needed to run two PowerSwitch units!
You can use those for 12v inputs to program the Garmin to do different things! Such as high beams triggering your front light bar, or bed lights turning on rock lights!
Ahh, I see you aren’t familiar with the other options on the market. All good! A built out switchpros kit is closer to $1,000 and a built out SPOD kit is closer to $1100. You won’t build out a plug and play Garmin kit with all of the components that come in ours for less. But we understand if it is outside of your budget, however we build for quality and reliability and by no means strive to complete with the Chinese switching systems on price.

Wire up all the full time power goodies to her!!

Would love to see a set up video on the new dual/triple set up you have!
We will have that coming here soon!

@@BlazeOffRoad thank you for the info, much appreciate!!!
Does the Tread Overlander turn off automatically when the power is cut if ran to the fused terminals ?
No Sir! but once its full it does stop drawing full power! We have them installed in quite a few trucks this way with no issues at all😎

Should do quick install of it 😂
We do have some install videos, you wanting a speed run?! We are DOWN to race the clock!
How would you suggest connecting this to a genesis dual battery system? Thanks.
You would simply connect it to their terminal blocks with our included cables! Just as easy as connecting it to the stock battery
What are the control 1 and control 2

$830.00. GTFO with this crap.
