Just went and looked up the Kolpin PowerPod. It looks like a pretty solid unit for relatively cheap. At 15 Amps per circuit it's a little on the low side, but I suppose you could just wire it to a relay if you needed to run something larger.

I do like the design of it though. A nice compact control unit for surprisingly cheap. My only concern would be having enough of a lead to make it into the jeep from the engine bay. I suppose you could just mount the control unit behind the glove box if it became an issue.

I like the sPod for the fact that it looks factory, but it's just so dang expensive. This looks to be a good alternative with a clean design and look.

Keep us informed on how it turns out! Pictures would be much appreciated!

So I just received my Koplin power pack. Quality looks pretty good. Wires are a lil short due to the fact that it's not made for a jeep but it will make it through the fire wall. I'm gonna have to extend a lil but but it shouldn't be a problem. Also it does not have any relay but I'm only using it for 2 apillar led lights so I shouldn't need a relay for them.

Will be installing soon.

Pics upon install
