Auxbeam light and switch panel question

I put on 285/75r18 Yokohama Geolandars on 18x8 American Outlaw Wheels. I was not too sure how the American Outlaw Wheels would look on the 4th Gen but I think they turned out perfect! I am running the Westcott Designs leveling kit to clear the 285/75 tires and they clear perfectly. It raised the rear 2.5" and the front .75". The wheels are +25mm offset and they don't poke out past the fender much at all. If you are not wanting the stance to be super wide I would recommend doing +25mm offset. The Yokohama's are perfect for daily driving and off-roading. They were perfect down on the beach and in the mountains. I have never had Yokohama's before and I really like them so far.

First: This is my first Tacoma and I know nothing about electrical.
I have a Trailhunter. It has several pre wired auxiliary switches, and from what I read they can handle the load of the Auxbeam ditch lights and light bar lights I got.
Is there any advantage to getting the Auxbeam switch panel?
It seems like I can keep a cleaner look using what I have.
Since I'm new to offroading and learning about overlanding as I go, I am unsure if I should save those for camping alternatives later?

My rig is a daily driver and I'll be using it for off road exploring and camping. I bought it after surviving Helene to build a competent daily driving bail out buggy. I share this so the experts out there understand my goals/needs.

Thanks for any help or insight, it's all new for me.
