The RIGrunner 8012 is the latest addition to the RIGrunner line of DC
Distribution Panels from West Mountain Radio. The 8012 provides distribution of
up to 80 amps at 12 VDC across two 40 amp busses.
A RIGrunner is the most convenient and safest way to connect all your 12 VDC
equipment to a power source. It is a 13.8 VDC power panel that uses the
excellent Anderson Powerpole connectors. Standardize all of your 12 VDC
connections using the amateur radio ARES & RACES, RSGB, ARRL Powerpole system.
