The dimmer is essentially a reostat (sp?), not a good source of power. Use the 12v switched power I circled in the picture. All you need is a spade connector and an in-line fuse...maybe 15 A before the gauges.
The gauges are probably drawing constant power from the battery instead of just when the key is on.
