I'm planning to install a second OEM PDC under the hood that is powered from the battery via a key-on/acc activated relay.
As I'm thinking this through, I'm curious what everyone has for accessories that don't require key-on and/or key-acc.
I figure I'll add circuits to the original PDC for any non-key-powered accessories. I'm just struggling to think what that would be...

My key-on accessories that will go in the new PDC include:
I know it's not many accessories, but I figure more to come. I was going with a Blue Sea fuse block but, since I've gotten more into pinning connectors, I like a clean install and was underwhelmed with aftermarket options. So I went PDC (overkill for sure); plus, I can use the relays within as well.
