    Mitch, why is another switch needed for your graphs on a designated wire. My graph wiring harness is connected to my battery switch along with the other boat wiring. Seems to work fine. Thanks for your input.

    You can do it that way too. I have my graphs direct from the battery to a Blue Seas Fuse Block in the front locker with them switched at the rear.
