Assistance wiring in roof basket lights
So today, I am going to wire in the lights on my roof basket. IT may be overkill but it is mainly for camping, and where we live, we do a lot of winter night wheeling in Grizzly Bear country.
Anyways, I have 3 sets of lights on the roof.
Fronts= 116 W total
Rears= 36 W total
Floods= 108 W total
I also have this kit for my switch. It is a touch screen LED panel. It has a 10A output.
Can I run my power wires straight to this panel or should I be wiring in another relay?

Relays!
The 36 watt can be done without a relay, but it will be a cleaner installation if you do them all the same.
(I'm assuming you are going to switch them as three separate banks of lights; front, middle, and rear)
Also, if you ever upgrade the middle bank, you are already wired for it.
