Wirring auxilary stuff question

Ok, so far I have my Winch connected to my battery. I would like to install CB radio and some auxilary lights as well. Can I run all this stuff to the battery or do I have to do something else? sorry for the dumb question but I am electricly retarded.

Thanks Echo,

I know I will have to replace the battery at some point in time but since it is only 6 months old I would like to wait a little bit. I just wanted to make sure that it is safe to attach everything directly to the battery. Sounds like I will be fine and I should plan on udgrading the battery sometime in the next year.

What sort of distribution block is this?? Where did you get it? Do you have a picture of it?? How did you wire the switches to each individual piece of equipment?
