good solution! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
This replaced my home brew panel I run a 50 amp p/s and all the rigs from this one panel never has it missed a beat if any thing was at fault it was my poor choice in banana plugs for the radios learned the hard way dont use cheap flimsy plugs I use the higher end all metal audiophile ones

great value,high quality Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
The unit is very heavily constructed with high quality binding posts,amp meters are accurate when compare to fluke multi meter amp readings,all in all a very well built accessory. i highly recommend at only 54 dollars compared to other low quality dc distribution panels that are available.

Great buy and quality! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Bought this in place of a MFJ. Good quality and price. MCM Electronics has it on sale every so often too! Have one on my bench at work also. Can't be beat!

Great buy for the money. Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
This unit has NINE DC connections and is much better quality and a much cheaper price than the MFJ strip. I don't use Anderson powerpoles and did not want to have to invest in a seperate tool for them. The Tenma is very well built, and has two DC amp meters on it. For the money it is a much better buy than the MFJ strips. There isn't much to go wrong with a product like this, but MFJ's lousy quality control is enough reason to buy the Tenma, even if it cost the same. But not only is it a better product, but it is less expensive.

Good and Bad! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I really liked the 72-6627, that is, until I connected my radio to the 15 amp circuit. Instantly blew the fuses!! Upon closer inspection, the red & black weren't positive & negative as expected. In fact, they were just the opposite! I re-fused, fully expecting my radio to be toast. It fired up, I got lucky!

I emailed Tenma and included photos. I got a 15 word, generic "sorry" in an email. For what it's worth.

At any rate, it seems to be a sturdy unit and has otherwise worked great with my TM-G707, IC-706 & tuner, RFC 2-317 and various scanners and other goodies. Though a little disgusted, I would consider buying again.

Love it Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I too was looking for a way to distribute dc in the station and thought I was stuck with a MFJ unit (which I what I had in the past). But I wanted quality - something I've found MFJ often lacking (at least, in my opinion and based upon past experiences with their equipment). I discovered the TENMA and could not be more satisfied. The quality is high and it is heavy, well-built, and it looks good - a hard combination to beat. Price is less, unit is solid and heavy, and it works great. K5WMG

Works good and great price Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I was going to buy the MFJ1118, but I found the TENMA on line for a much better price. I have had it for about 1 month and have had no problems. It sure looks like the MFJ1118, but has 2 Amp. meters, 1 switched and 1 non switched.
