We use two fuse panels.(Have for all years that there were two available.) We do not run seperate wires from the battery to each but #6 to the 12 way and another #6 to the 6 way.(+ and ground) Try and make your high current devices all on the 12 way or at least as many as possible to minimize the current in the longer run. Less current=less voltage drop on longer wire runs. Follow the color codes and other wiring conventions and make sure all the hardware is TIGHT.
Have fun and good luck.
