I have had this for a number of years. i used it a few time for amps and fans and lights. Very useful little thing, I could never find much info about them so i just gave up and used it as is. Now i see them on this site, so i gotta ask about it. Mine is a Tantrum series though, haven't seen one on here yet.....

Same as this Fused Zero point distro block, Its in alum, it has to 0guage inputs and 3 outs i do believe, i can check. I also have the matching Voltage monitor that plugs into the distro block. It is also in aluminum. I have the other two smaller matching distro as well in alum.0 guage in 4 4ga out and 1 thats 2 4ga in and 4 8 ga out. all Zero point and fused. Found my Zero point 1 odd underhood fuse as well....... sweet

Yes yes messy install, very very temporary.........lol

Besides a few custom models, all DD5s are Tantrum and all DD10s are Titanium. They are great little boxes. I'm currently rocking a DD5 for my two amps and accessories/processors. It basically allows your amps to always turn on last and turn off first to avoid any on/off noise. It does this with configurable delay as well.

I don't know if you've browsed the manual repository yet but here is the manual for the Desmazes Distribution units:

those are the best car audio investment i ever made! nor more rats nest or relays!

plus i used mine to wire up cool stuff like tire inflater and cell phone charger!

hey guys

just as an aside

there is a company in the UK that is making something similar.

Same concept, except

can delay each output
can have an aux in - so can switch on lights ect without the need for a remote in
can have multiple outputs up to 40A draw per output
clear top
volt meter
loads of other functions too

sorry for the hazy pic, took it and did not check quality , kicking myself right now that I did not take a better pic

That's really cool!

Got a price tag? Looks like some quality components, big terminals, etc. Must cost a pretty penny!

there just at prototype stage at the moment but are very large do a search on audio wave and you will find out more
i had the pleasure of checking out the prototype board about 2 months ago very impressive with mutiple delays etc but its about the size of a xenon amp!! without its case!

see that is just too big. The DD5 is perfect size, maybe just a tad too big as it would be great to be able to put these in the dash somewhere. I was lucky I didn't have an airbag and it fit perfectl in there.
