Connect-Ease Multi 5 Fused Lead Accessory Kit

With more and more electronics packed onto boats every season, this Connect-Ease Multi 5 Fused Lead Accessory Connection System allows up to five electronics or accessories to connect to a single battery easily and correctly every time. That single-battery approach avoids a tangle of separate connections each time a new device gets added. It also keeps every accessory drawing from a consistent, known power source.

Fused connectors on each of the five leads safeguard expensive electronics from a wiring fault or short that could otherwise damage a costly depth finder, GPS unit, or radio. Any marine equipment, including depth finders, GPS units, radios, lights, pumps, and aerators, can connect to one of the fused leads for that added protection. Each lead protects its own device independently, so a fault on one doesn't take the rest of the system down with it.

That fusing is the main difference from the unfused Multi 5 system, and it's worth the small extra cost given how much a modern chartplotter or radio can cost to replace. A blown fuse is also a far easier fix than diagnosing damage to the electronics themselves after an unprotected short. Swapping a fuse takes a minute, while replacing a fried GPS unit does not.
