Go to Post I don't know how much of a safety factor chain manufacturers build into these ratings. I've got empirical evidence to demonstrate that it's not 5, however. - Tristan Lall [more]

As an electronics guy, i can say our whole team wanted to use the 2k5 panel this year. For us, while "Bigger" Its much nicer to layout and use. No need for the grounding stud, no need for multi fuse boxes. Less 6 gauge cable to run. Sure, you can make a nice light compact design with the independant blocks, like this design is, But for our team, the bigger panel is better.

Actually, if i had my perfect fuse panel:
Half the size, add 2 more 40 amp fuses (8 total then) and half the number of other fuses (10-20 total)
