Default power supply help

I'm new to electric. I just bought a single output 25amp power supply. I was wondering what people were using to split the output so you could run more than one charger. I'd like to be able to run 2 or 3 things off of the power supply. Is there a company out there that makes some type of box??

Thanks.

go to radio shack and buy some female and male banana plugs. Ask them for what they call a "project box", they come in a variety of sizes, drill some holes in it, mount the female banana plugs in it, and wire it to your power supply. cost you about $10

you mean like the one i JUST built?




mine cost me about $43(the 8 terminal speaker plate is $25 and the light box from home depot is $6.50) the terminals are gold plated tho and they accept banana plugs. and another $12 for the extra 2 terminals you see on the side there.

for more details visit the TAOB website.

Chris - that's nice! I wouldn't mind switching over to banana plugs from aligator clips if I had a box like that! Hehe, new project for the cold winter here in PA.

I used 14 gauge except for the LED which had there own little 21gauge wire already attached between the switch and the bananna plugs I used 16gauge as 14 was too big to attach and besides the stuff I attach to the switched plugs is just fans or discharger coolers. The other three plugs I use for my chargers the GM Commander & the APS 3 in 1 Dyno-Charge (which by the way is so nice for only $150.00 @ speedtech).
Hope all this helps,

granted that is the prettiest distibution box but do you realy need gold plated plugs for chargers and fans?????LOL Well I guess so......It does increase the effiency of the plugs.LOL
No realy I am just kidding, that was my first Idea too but budget kept me down,,,,Darn budget....Anyway I realy don't need the screw type plugs either but Radio Shack didn;t have enough of the really low profile (cheaper ones so I got those)... Anyhow yours looks so pimp (bling bling). KO PROPO would be so proud....
CYA
