Description
The sPOD BantamX Modular (SKU BXMOD36B) is the universal 8-circuit solid-state power management system with a Blue LED Carling Contura switch panel and 36-inch battery cables — for trucks, SUVs, UTVs, overland rigs, and custom builds where the module mounts close to the battery and no vehicle-specific BantamX kit exists for the platform. Aluminum formed and welded panel housing with IP66/68-rated Carling Contura switches, dual-lit per switch, pilot push button, daisy-chainable. Single CAT-6 cable between module and panel. No wires cut, no factory circuits tapped. Operates on 12V or 24V DC. Expandable to 32 circuits. Blue LED — high-contrast visibility for daily drivers and mixed-use builds.
If your module will mount more than 3 feet from the battery, order BXMOD84B (84-inch cables) instead.

36-Inch vs. 84-Inch — Choose Before Ordering
| Cable Length | SKU | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 36 inches — BXMOD36B (this listing) | Module mounting within 3 feet of battery — UTV engine bays, compact setups, near-battery positions | |
| 84 inches — BXMOD84B | Module mounting more than 3 feet from battery — full-size trucks, van builds, overland rigs |
Measure your routing path from the battery to the planned module location before ordering. If it exceeds 3 feet, order BXMOD84B.
BantamX Modular Color Options — 36-Inch Cable
| SKU | LED Color | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| BXMOD36B (this listing) | Blue | High-contrast visibility — daily drivers and mixed-use builds |
| BXMOD36G | Green | All-around visibility — best readability across all lighting conditions |
| BXMOD36R | Red | Maximum night vision preservation — dedicated dark trail builds |
| BXMOD36A | Amber | Night vision-friendly, warm spectrum — trail and mixed-use builds |
BantamX Modular vs. BantamX HD Kit — Choose Your Panel Format
| Kit | Panel Format | Switch Type | IP Rating | Color Options |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BantamX Modular — BXMOD36B (this listing) | Carling Contura — aluminum formed/welded | LED rocker switches — dual-lit | IP66/68 | Red, Green, Blue, Amber |
| BantamX HD Kit — BXTSBUNI36 | HD silicone-button panel | Silicone buttons — RGB backlit | All-weather | RGB (any color) |
Kit Contents
- sPOD BantamX solid-state module (8-circuit, expandable)
- Blue LED Carling Contura aluminum switch panel (IP66/68)
- 36-inch battery cable set (hi-strand crosslinked copper, silicone jacket, nylon braid)
- 10-ft CAT-6 Ethernet controller cable

Critical Compatibility
| Configuration | Notes |
|---|---|
| Module mounting more than 3 feet from battery | Order BXMOD84B (84-inch cables) instead |
| Builds requiring more than 8 circuits | BantamX expandable to 32 via add-on units — order BXUNI36ADD or BXUNI84ADD |
| 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
How do I confirm 36-inch cables are sufficient? Measure the actual routing path from the battery to the planned module location — not straight-line distance. Route the tape measure through the same path the cable will take: through firewall openings, along routing channels, to the mount point. If it exceeds 3 feet, order BXMOD84B. A cable that falls short mid-install requires a return.
Blue vs. Amber or Red for a mixed-use build? Blue provides high-contrast switch-state visibility in typical cab lighting — the right call for a daily driver or mixed-use build where daytime readability matters. Amber preserves night vision significantly better for trail use. Red provides maximum night vision preservation for dedicated dark trail builds. Blue is the practical choice when the rig sees more street than trail at night.
What is the difference between BantamX Modular and the BantamX HD Kit? Panel format only. The Modular uses IP66/68-rated Carling Contura rocker switches in a welded aluminum housing with LED color options. The HD Kit uses modern silicone buttons in a billet aluminum housing with RGB backlight. Same BantamX module, same 8 circuits, same expandability.
Can I expand beyond 8 circuits? Yes. The BantamX has two RJ45 controller ports and is expandable to 32 channels via BantamX add-on modules.
The Obsidian Take
The BantamX Modular (BXMOD36B) is for the builder running a compact mounting layout — module close to the battery, clean short cable routing — who wants 8 circuits of fuse-free accessory power with IP66/68-rated Blue LED Carling switches. High-contrast visibility for a build that sees regular street use alongside trail time, expandable to 32 circuits.
Measure your battery cable routing path before ordering. If it exceeds 3 feet, order BXMOD84B. If it is within 3 feet and Blue is the right color for the build, 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.
