Fitment, Shipping & Product Support
The sPOD BantamX HD Kit (SKU BXTSBUNI84) is the universal 8-circuit solid-state power management system with the HD switch panel and 84-inch battery cables — for trucks, SUVs, UTVs, overland rigs, and custom builds where no vehicle-specific BantamX kit exists for the platform. The BantamX module and HD panel mount wherever the build requires. Single CAT-6 cable between both. No wires cut, no factory circuits tapped. Operates on 12V or 24V DC. Expandable to 32 circuits.
Note on naming: sPOD uses "Touchscreen" in this kit's product name. The controller included is the HD switch panel with silicone buttons — not the TFT LCD touchscreen (860800/860805). If you want an in-cab touchscreen interface, order the BantamX Touchscreen universal kit (BXTSBUNI84-TS) or add the touchscreen (860800) to an existing BantamX system.

Universal BantamX Kit — Cable Length Selector
| SKU | Cable Length | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| BXTSBUNI84 (this listing) | 84 inches | Module mounting more than 3 feet from battery — full-size trucks, van builds, overland rigs, remote battery locations |
| BXTSBUNI36 | 36 inches | Module mounting within 3 feet of battery — UTV engine bays, compact setups |
Measure your routing path from the battery to the planned module location before ordering.
Critical Compatibility
| Configuration | Notes |
|---|---|
| Builds requiring more than 8 circuits | BantamX is expandable to 32 circuits via add-on units. Order BXUNI84ADD or BXUNI36ADD. |
| Module mounting within 3 feet of battery | Order BXTSBUNI36 (36-inch cables) for cleaner installation |
| sPOD SourceLT systems | SourceLT is a separate 6-circuit system. Not compatible with BantamX expansion. |
| Winches and high-draw recovery motors | 30A max per circuit. Wire winches direct to battery through a dedicated relay. |
| Any accessory requiring more than 30A per circuit | 30A hard ceiling per circuit. High-draw devices require direct battery wiring outside this system. |
| High-amp solenoids on the same battery post | Isolate the BantamX battery connection from any high-amp relay or solenoid. |
Common Questions
The product name says "Touchscreen" but the description mentions an HD panel — which is it? HD switch panel. sPOD uses "Touchscreen" in this kit's name as part of their product line naming convention. The controller included is the HD panel with 8 RGB backlit silicone buttons — not the TFT LCD touchscreen. If you specifically want a touchscreen interface, confirm the kit SKU includes the 3.5-inch TFT touchscreen before ordering.
Does the Bluetooth work as a remote control? For programming only. The billet aluminum HD panel housing limits Bluetooth range to 5–15 feet. Use Bluetooth to program dimming levels, strobe patterns, momentary behavior, and switch linking. For everyday circuit activation, use the physical HD switches.
Why 84-inch cables instead of 36-inch? 84-inch cables give you 7 feet of routing flexibility — necessary for full-size trucks, van builds, and any installation where the module mounts away from the battery. If your routing path is within 3 feet, order BXTSBUNI36 for cleaner cable management.
Can I expand beyond 8 circuits? Yes. The BantamX has two RJ45 controller ports and is expandable to 32 channels by adding BantamX add-on modules (BXUNI84ADD or BXUNI36ADD). Up to 4 BantamX units can be daisy-chained, controlled by one touchscreen.
The Obsidian Take
The BantamX HD Kit (BXTSBUNI84) is for the builder running a platform without a vehicle-specific BantamX kit who needs 8 circuits of clean, fuse-free accessory power with an RGB backlit HD panel and 84 inches of battery cable reach. Universal mounting, full BantamX expandability to 32 channels, 12V or 24V compatible.
Measure your battery cable routing path before ordering. If it is within 3 feet, order BXTSBUNI36. If it exceeds 3 feet, this is your kit.
