Hi All - this post is to follow up on my prior AK posts.  With the third revision to my powerbox, and to stay sane in AK winter, a few of us held a little party in Anchorage and built some waterproof power boxes for our fish finders.   

I promised quite a few people that I would update my prior post instructions and load up a parts list and schematic.   I tried once to get all the photos to go up with comments, but in the end had to put all the info into a PDF.  Apologies - it is still a huge file, but hopefully it will load up below.   

If you are handy with tools and wires you can build your own in a few hours.

Successful build following the guide. I only varied your design by using the paired male and female cable ends and running it through the box with a cable gland, and I repurposed a test strip container to make a case and cover for the switch.





Thanks for the plans and guide!
