- Auxbeam 8 Gang Switch Panel Bluetooth AR-800 RGB APP Control with Backlit Off Toggle Momentary Pulsed Auxiliary Switch Panel for Truck SUV ATV UTV RV Multifunction 12-24V Waterproof 3 Years Warranty

I spent a lot of time going back and forth between this Auxbeam switch panel and some of the much more expensive systems out there that cost $500+ once everything is said and done. After installing and using this one, I’m really glad I decided to save the money. The install was straightforward and everything you need is included — wiring harness, control box, and the switch panel itself. Once installed, it works exactly the way you’d want a system like this to work. The switches are responsive, the panel is easy to program, and it keeps all your accessory wiring clean and organized. What surprised me most is the build quality. Before buying I was a little worried it might feel cheap compared to the big-name systems, but it honestly doesn’t. The control box is solid, the wiring feels heavy-duty, and the panel itself looks great once mounted. I’m currently using it to control several accessories and it handles everything without any issues. The backlighting and customizable switch labels are also a really nice touch. Pros • Much cheaper than the big-name switch systems • Clean way to organize accessory wiring • Solid build quality • Easy installation with everything included • Customizable switches and lighting Cons • Instructions could be a little clearer in a few spots • Some of the big brands may have slightly more polished software Overall After using it, I genuinely don’t feel like I gave up anything by choosing this over the more expensive systems. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do and keeps everything clean and easy to control. If you’re debating between this and one of the $500+ options like I was, this is definitely worth considering. I’m glad I saved the money.

Some really cool features in the switch panel. Highly functional and top quality. Easy to install and straightforward. Had it in my gladiator for about a year before I sold the vehicle and worked flawlessly.

Great product. Solid design. Great features. But very well. Wiring made easy. No need to run tons of wires through the firewall to your switches. Simply a single communication wire. No need for lots of cluttered fuses or relays. No need to cut holes in panels inside your vehicle to mount switches. One self contained switch board and one self contained solid state control board under the hood. Doing wiring any other way should be a thing of the past. The ONLY negative I can say, is not about the product. But the amount of them that seem the samen with no direct comparison to help the consumer decide which one they need. I'm a classic "paralysis by analysis" guy. It took me a month to decide which to buy which would have been mitigated simply by doing a side by side feature graph like almost every other product on Amazon

Great product. Moderately easy to install for mechanically inclined individuals. Works fantastic does exactly what it is supposed to do and looks great.

Didn’t expect to be this impressed, but here we are. Feels well made, does exactly what it promises, and didn’t fall apart the first time I used it — which sadly puts it ahead of a lot of stuff I’ve bought online. Solid switch panel that made my teryx SXS cleaner with few wires everywhere. Prettt supportive and non-violent switch board.

I already had the Auxbeam BA-80 8-gang system installed in my vehicle, but I wanted to upgrade to this AR-800 system to get the new Bluetooth control and RGB backlighting features. Installation was very easy, as Auxbeam gives you practically everything you need to get this into your vehicle: power cables, circuit breaker, accessory wires, button decals, etc. In fact, it is almost identical to what you get with the older BA-80 system. The only clue that you will spot is that the relay box has a differently styled cover (and blue terminals inside); even the newer AR-800 control panel looks exactly the same as the older BA-80! For those who are considering upgrading from the BA-80, the quality of the components given are very good. The control panel has a metal frame and the membrane buttons are of excellent quality. The control panel does not feel like some cheap electronic at all! The relay box is fairly heavy and built solid as well. Actual system functionality is the same as the BA-80 except you also get two new features: RGB backlighting and Bluetooth app control. RGB backlighting allows you to change the backlight of the buttons to practically any color so you can match the Auxbeam control panel to your dash lighting. Bluetooth control allows you to use your smartphone to control your lights and accessories remotely, including added features for each circuit such as momentary control or strobe/flashing. Both features are done through a phone app, which is pretty basic but does the job. Unfortunately after install I discovered that tthere are 3 flaws to this system... and they are exactly the same 3 complaints I had with the original BA-80: First, the included circuit breaker feels cheap and questionable, but I already had a different circuit breaker in place so I did not use the included one; Second, the newer AR-800 switch panel STILL resets back to "all off" when you turn the key off, so if you like certain accessories to turn on when you turn the key to ON you have to manually turn them back on at the switch panel every single time you start the vehicle; and Third. the automatic brightness/dimmer illumination feature still doesn't seem to work at all, the lighted switch panel stays the same brightness no matter if it's daytime or night time. So the AR-800 system is basically an upgraded BA-80 that adds in RGB backlighting and App remote control for about $100 more than the BA-80. It is still a bang-for-the-buck alternative to the more expensive SwitchPro-style switch panels going for $500+, so if you can live with the minor flaws (I think I can) then this is a great value system to control all your vehicle electronics!

Very nice unit. Quality in weight and material. No plastic junk. Installed a few days ago and functions great. No complaints.

Awesome quality and very very good gadget
