    Best option for tapping into rear battery

    Yeah - for a winch I think you want to connect directly to the battery like the Dissent Off-road folks did in their YouTube video. Sine my compressor claims to only draw 20A at most, the 40A breaker should be good.

    Its a standard 50A anderson plug - they are usually grey but also come in red. It also has a black dust cover on the end which makes it look odd.

    Best option for tapping into rear battery

    It is interesting that they left a high current terminal totally open. I wonder if this is used for something on other versions of the vehicle or maybe shared with the GX550

    Best option for tapping into rear battery

    What's the best option for making your own connections with the rear battery? When I took off the positive terminal cover, there appears to be an open terminal available (yellow arrow) - is that preferable to attaching directly to the terminal (red arrow)?
