Also I still have the battery tender negitive wire connected directly to the battery post so I can still maintain a full charge even with the disconnect activated. Yea I know it sounds strange and hard to explain but the unit is still working as intended. |

Re: Remote Batt. Disconnect
Why not just go with the simple route and use this, I did simple and easy. I use a large carabiner to attach to key ring when not on the truck

Re: Remote Batt. Disconnect
Or just use this.
Step out of the truck, walk away, press a button and the power is shut off. No need to pop the hood in the middle of a parking lot every time you want to disable or enable the electric. |

Re: Remote Batt. Disconnect
Just curious why you couldn't install a high amp relay and a battery with top and side post. Wire the top post neg to engine, top post pos to starter. Then the side post neg to frame and side post pos to run everything but starter. Wire key switch to trigger relay. When relay is off there is no power going to the truck except for the starter which is off the battery. Or you can wire in a toggle/rocker switch instead of the key switch. Flip the toggle/rocker on then turn the key. I have not tried it but have thought about it.

Re: Remote Batt. Disconnect
Um, I have no idea what you mean on that one but if you ever do hook it up post pictures on it.
So I did install a top secret James Bond 007 kill switch and it works as intended but I can't show it to you because then it wouldn't be top secret. However I know you all are wanting to see where I hid the wire bus gizmo and that works great while cleaning up the wiring mess. I do have a tiny chair to help me get under the dash and when I add enough padding it saves my back and about $150 for something more specialized. |
