Cheers,
        I'm still searching for that elusive device - in an attempt to avoid
the cost of an ampere or two of contactor current - which will control a
primary battery source and another for secondary battery source.
        I have found several which meet one criterion or another, but not
all: 
[a]     should carry as much current as a contactor for that job;
[b]     needs to be an up-down rather than rotary type switch;
[c]     should be on a remote(able) stalk so I can undo the connection to
remove the      instrument panel ;
[d]     cost less than the usual contactor - or at least be competitive.
        I have devised a system to isolate the controls from wandering
fingers so am not fussy about security. I'm not sure what a "Kill switch" is
really.
        Any help would be most appreciated.
