How do you go about wiring an on/off battery switch to a single battery. I already have a solar on it for trickle charging and a priority start device to shut off if voltage drops below 11.9V.
I would like to have an on/off switch for security as well as forgeting to shut down any other electrics.

Re: Battery on/off switch

google the brand you are looking at, but if just an on/off all you do is connect the pos cable to each side . all it does is break the flow of current.

Just don't hook your auto-bilge to it. Run it straight to the batt.
IMHO
