I’m looking to instal a fuse block to make adding accessories easier.
the Eastern Beaver PC8 looks very good but I am also looking at the Fuzeblock FZ1.
I’m no expert so any thoughts on them or are they both as good as each other?

I’ve used Fuzeblocks on both my bikes without any issues. You need a dry place to mount them though, they’re not water proof

I'm using the PC8. Mounted where the tool bag goes. No worries about it getting wet.

There’s a guy on the Suzuki Vstrom forum that makes fuse blocks. I’ve got one on my ST and works really well. Think it cost £30.

You could try a search and find the dozens of times each of these has been discussed.

I've used both the PC8 & the Fuzeblock FZ1. Both on Super Tens.

Everything on the PC8 will be has 5 switched & 3 unswitched fuses and wires directly in to the bikes harness. Super easy to wire up. Plenty of room for it in a couple of places.

The FZ1 is slightly more compact. It has switched and unswitched options. Still pretty easy to wire in. Option of switched/unswitch on some (all?), by moving the fuse to a different position.

Both are excellent products.

Correction EricV - my Eastern Beaver PC8 has 5 switched and 3 non-switched circuits. I can only recommend it

Thanks, it's been a while since I looked at that bike.
