The Blue Sea Systems 8068 is a 13-position 12V DC panel with white toggle breakers, ten 7210 A-Series 15A units installed, rated 50A maximum.
Toggle breakers rather than rockers is the distinction, and toggles still have their followers for a practical reason. Circuit state can be told by feel in the dark, and there is none of the ambiguity about whether a rocker went fully in. On a panel checked at night without a light, that counts.
Metering is two dedicated instruments rather than one shared display: an 8028 voltmeter covering 8 to 16 volts and an 8041 ammeter reading 0 to 50A with its shunt included. Both are visible at once, which is what catches a load’s draw as it cycles rather than showing one value at a time.
It measures 10.5 by 7.5 by 3 inches and weighs 4.2 pounds, with positive, negative and grounding buses installed and fully pre-wired. Label backlighting is in place and all LEDs are fitted at the factory. Thirty common DC labels, installation instructions and a cutout template are included. Explore more marine electrical panels.
