Battery terminal problems

Not sure how to hook all this up. I got a voltage reducer, battery meter charger and battery balancer that all have to be hook to the positive and negative terminal
How do I do it

A preferred option is to use isolated bus bars for the multiple negative and positive connections. See an example at: https://www.amazon.ca/Blue-Sea-Syste...721&psc=1&th=1

If you decide to stack connectors on the battery terminals, you MUST ALWAYS have the highest amperage connection on the bottom in direct contact with the lead of the battery terminal. Not following this sequence can result in higher terminal resistance which results in the generation of heat which if excessive, can result in a total meltdown of the lead terminal. There are lots of these meltdowns documented in the BGW threads.
