Would like to install a battery shut off switch..(not the kind that attaches to the battery terminal).. Has anyone installed one? If so what kind and how..
Thanks

I got a Cole-Hersey main disconnect like a race car. I took a large clamp and clamped it to the back of the panel behind the seats (inside the battery compartment). I use it to disconnect the negative terminal.

Yeah,I'm using the one on a terminal.If you want,for security you can take the threaded knob with you.An alarm system is next,but the question is,will it operate with just the jumper lead on my battery disconnect??
