I connected our TST signal booster to the load side of the small breaker on the wall behind the batteries, and I also added a couple 12 volt lights inside that compartment, connected to the same place, and everything works just fine.
I am not an electrician, so let me confirm. I will add a positive off the battery insert a fuse into it, then connect to the Blue Sea block. When you say a fuse large enough to cover the expected load would that be if all 6 were operative simultaneously? Do you suggest a 80 amp? The ground can be attached to any metal in the 3160RL front compartment where I am mounting the block?
