Auxbeam BA80 + Delta 3 Ultra Plus Truck Camper Setup

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a quick sanity check on a 12V electrical plan for my overland truck camper. I want to run all my camp DC accessories (maxair fan, Starlink mini, fridge) off my EcoFlow Delta 3 Ultra Plus's 30A Anderson Powerpole output. My concrete Plan:

  • - Distribution Hub: I’ve opted for an Auxbeam BA80 (8-Gang) panel system to act as my centralized fuse block and switch dashboard.

  • - Main Feed: Run a factory-assembled 10 AWG Anderson Powerpole to Ring Terminal cable from the EcoFlow. The Red line runs directly into the input of the included manual-reset circuit breaker, bridges from the breaker output to the Auxbeam Positive input stud, and the Black line lands directly on the Auxbeam Negative stud.

  • - The Ignition Workaround: Because this is running off a portable power station and not a vehicle battery, jump the Auxbeam's ACC ignition wire directly to the main Positive input stud. To avoid crimping tools, land a pre-made ring terminal wire pigtail on the stud and splice it to the ignition wire using a Wago 221 lever nut. This keeps the hub permanently armed when the EcoFlow's DC port is activated.

  • - Vibration-Proof Terminal Connections: Use a wire ferrule crimping kit for all appliance wires so they can be securely locked down by the terminal block screws.

Does this look like a good architecture? Most of the detailed instructions I've found online is how to make the Auxbeam work with a vehicle battery, and I have seen it mentioned that people use it with secondary batteries, but I haven't found detailed instructions for this use case.
