Yes I agree about the CH switches but I think they're mounted in a remote location away from the battery is that right? I was looking for something that switches near the battery. I had a little fire with an engine compartment light last year. Since then Ive had the whole truck re-wired as there were other symptoms of bad grounds and such with the lights. So being extra cautious here and thinking about disconnecting the battery as built in feature doesn't sound like a bad idea. Thanks for the ideas so far.
