RE: Basic Field Kit For Begginers
The power panel just makes it convenient for your electrical components to connect to the battery. You hook the power panel to the 12v battery. Your fuel pump plugs into it with an on/off and direction switch. It has a place for your starter to plug in and it has a current meter/regulator for your glow ignitor.
Your glow ignitor is what you clip on to the glow plug of your engine when starting it.
