Description
The sPOD BantamX HD Kit (SKU BXHDUNI84) is the universal 8-circuit solid-state power management system with the RGB backlit HD silicone-button panel and 84-inch battery cables — for trucks, SUVs, UTVs, overland rigs, and custom builds where no vehicle-specific BantamX kit exists and the module mounts more than 3 feet from the battery. Precision-machined billet aluminum HD panel with tactile silicone buttons, adjustable RGB backlight, and a single RJ45 jack connecting to the BantamX module via 10-foot CAT-6 cable. No wires cut, no factory circuits tapped. Operates on 12V or 24V DC. Expandable to 32 circuits.
If your module will mount within 3 feet of the battery, order BXHDUNI36 (36-inch cables) instead.

84-Inch vs. 36-Inch — Choose Before Ordering
| Cable Length | SKU | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 84 inches — BXHDUNI84 (this listing) | Module mounting more than 3 feet from battery — full-size trucks, van builds, overland rigs, remote battery locations | |
| 36 inches — BXHDUNI36 | Module mounting within 3 feet of battery — UTV engine bays, compact setups |
Universal BantamX Interface Selector
| SKU | Interface | Panel Format | Bluetooth Use | Color |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BXHDUNI84 (this listing) | HD silicone-button panel | Billet aluminum, RGB backlit | Programming only — 5–15 ft range | Any RGB color |
| BXTSBUNI84 | Touchscreen | TFT LCD touchscreen | App control | N/A |
| BXMOD84R/G/B/A | Modular Carling panel | Aluminum formed/welded, LED rocker | App control | Red, Green, Blue, Amber |
HD vs. Modular: same BantamX module, same 8 circuits, same expandability. The HD uses modern silicone tactile buttons with RGB backlight in a billet aluminum housing. The Modular uses traditional Carling Contura rocker switches in a welded aluminum housing with fixed LED color options. HD vs. Touchscreen: same module, HD requires physical button press, Touchscreen uses a resistive TFT LCD screen.

Critical Compatibility
| Configuration | Notes |
|---|---|
| Module mounting within 3 feet of battery | Order BXHDUNI36 (36-inch cables) for cleaner installation |
| Builds requiring more than 8 circuits | BantamX expandable to 32 via add-on units — order BXUNI84ADD |
| sPOD SourceLT systems | SourceLT is a separate 6-circuit system. Not compatible with BantamX expansion. |
| Using Bluetooth as a remote control | Bluetooth on HD panel is for programming only — 5–15 ft range. Use the sPOD app on your phone for broader remote control capability. |
| Winches and high-draw recovery motors | 30A max per circuit sustained. Wire winches direct to battery through a dedicated relay. |
| High-amp solenoids on the same battery post | Isolate the BantamX battery connection from any high-amp relay or solenoid. |
Common Questions
How do I confirm 84-inch cables are the right call vs. 36-inch? Measure the actual routing path from the battery to the planned module location — not straight-line distance. If it exceeds 3 feet, 84-inch cables are correct. If it is within 3 feet, order BXHDUNI36 and eliminate excess cable management. A cable that falls short mid-install requires a return.
The Bluetooth range is only 5–15 feet — is that a problem? Only if you expected it to function as a remote control from a distance. The HD panel's Bluetooth is specifically for programming — setting dimming levels, strobe patterns, RGB backlight color, and switch linking. For everyday circuit activation, use the physical HD buttons. For remote control from further away, the BantamX module's own Bluetooth connects to the sPOD app on your phone with better range.
HD panel vs. Modular panel — which is right? Different switch technology. The HD uses silicone tactile buttons with RGB backlight in a billet aluminum housing — operable by feel in the dark, any color. The Modular uses Carling Contura rocker switches with fixed LED color options in a welded aluminum housing rated IP66/68. Same BantamX module, same circuits, same expandability. Choose based on switch preference and whether LED color specificity for night vision matters to your build.
Can I run the HD panel alongside a touchscreen or app simultaneously? Yes. The HD panel runs in conjunction with the sPOD Touchscreen, Bluetooth, and 8-switch panels simultaneously. All control interfaces operate the same 8 circuits on the BantamX module.
The Obsidian Take
The BantamX HD Kit (BXHDUNI84) is for the builder running a platform without a vehicle-specific BantamX kit who needs 8 circuits of clean, fuse-free accessory power behind a tactile RGB backlit HD panel — any color, operable by feel in the dark, billet aluminum housing, 84 inches of battery cable reach, expandable to 32 circuits.
Two decisions before ordering. First — measure your battery cable routing path. If it is within 3 feet, order BXHDUNI36. Second — if fixed LED color options for night vision preservation matter to your build, evaluate the Modular lineup instead. If RGB flexibility and silicone tactile buttons are the right interface, this is your kit.
Non-Returnable Notice: Electrical systems that have been powered and connected to a vehicle are non-returnable. Inspect the kit and confirm fitment before connecting to the battery.
