Now that I am part way through solving an electrical gremlin on my e-bike, it is time I looked at hard wiring up some accessories (front lights, rear lights, horn and indicators).
I would like to wire these to the main battery via a switch for each accessory function on the handlebar.
In the past I have had a neat install of 12V accesories in my vehicle and I would like to do something similar.
So I was thinking main cable from battery to fuse box, then individually fused connections to the e-bike motor and each accessory. I like fuse boxes with a negative busbar as I feel it produces a clean install.
The problem is most of the automotive fuse boxes are only rated to 32V, I use a marine Blue Sea Systems in my car.
Is there a brand that people turn to or fusebox recommendations for a clean install? What fuses do people use?
I have attached a dodgy sketch.
I intend to get the wiring done by a professional, but I would like to see what configuration is possible.
Is what I am hoping to do even possible?
Specifics
Battery: 48V 20AH Li-ion
E-bike motor: Bafang BBS002
My lights accept 12-48V. Havent looked into horn, but will try find out that has variable voltage input or 48V or use a converter.
