[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 282826, member: 615"] It would be very nice if a simple 1 or 2 screw terminal junction block was provided next to the rectifier/regulator for the (+) and (-) R/R outputs. You'd be tapping into the source of all power rather than at the battery. When you connect accessories to the battery terminals you are using the wiring harness -- the main (+) and (-) bus conductors back to the R/R. As an alternative to connecting accessories to the negative terminal of the battery one could easily connect to the terminal on the engine crankcase where the battery's large negative lead is connected. The voltage drop through this large negative lead to the battery would be nil. This lead carries essentially zero current except when the starter motor is actuated. This would help reduce the wiring clutter around the battery. [/QUOTE]
