Thanks to advice on another thread, I now have external lights permanently and discreetly wired into place, with wireless control. I eventually spliced these into the rear light fitting to get power, but there are some other things I'd like to do, and so I need a proper power feed. Advice in the other thread seems to suggest that I can attach cables directly to the terminals on the rear battery (T5 SE), or alternatively that I should connect the negative to the shunt instead for optimal performance. However, @Loz 's diagram in the resources section shows that the negative terminal is connected to the shunt anyway, so I can't see what difference it would make? Plus access to the shunt is far too much hassle (assuming it's still under the fridge on a late T5.1 SE). Another suggestion is to connect to the body instead.
Is there a definitive method by which I should be grabbing power?
