Fooling around with my ammeter has (I think) finally gotten me to the point where I am ready to install the battery cut-off switch I bought several years ago. It is a Lucas switch, which will have approximately 2" sticking out below whatever installation point I choose.
I am looking for a location that is 1) easy to reach; especially in an emergency 2) easy to install; meaning easy access to the primary wire and 3) safe; the last thing I want is for this to result in a short - I want it to prevent one!
Looking around, the best place I can see is just to the driver's side of the battery box, which would locate it above the prop shaft. It looks like there would be plenty of room for clearance (I plan on using rubber boots over the connections, just for safety) and the wire access there would be a breeze. Are there any better locations that I am missing?
Thanks.
