Re: battery cut out switch
Intellitek make excellent ones, but I think, only 12 or higher. Here is a link:

Is this the silver device that looks like a Flux Capacitor on a 1985 DeLorean? $24 ?

Re: battery cut out switch
No, I don't believe that's a ratcheting relay. That looks like a common Ford starter solenoid and sells for about $15.00 at NAPA. The ratcheting relays I'm familiar with are somewhat larger than that. They are often used on RV's to connect the house batteries to the RV. I've never seen one that operated on 6 volts but they may be out there.

Re: battery cut out switch
Is it called a ratcheting relay or latching relay? A Google search finds 12 volt latching relays but nothing 6 volt.

Re: battery cut out switch
I mounted mine on the seat riser as shown in the photos. I love the location as I can turn it on when I get in the driver's seat and then shut it off as I'm getting out of the coupe. Another nice thing is that it is pretty much out-of-sight.
Hope the photos come out clear.....Good Luck.... |

Re: battery cut out switch
Bought kit from Mike's. Mounted on starter bolt . Can easily be mounted on firewall without extra wiring also. Reach under dash to use . Have a fire, you'll get one plus starter mounted 30 amp fuse. I know from sad experience.

Re: battery cut out switch
I put my battery shut off switch THROUGH the fire wall so I can turn it off and on with my toe.
I set it to the hippie saying RIGHT ON so I remember which way is off and on. |

Re: battery cut out switch
At the Studebaker show and swap yesterday someone had a cutoff switch built as a knife switch. I always thought if you use a master cutoff switch this would be the best style, but I didn't know anyone makes and sells them. This was a manufactured part that mounted right on the battery post.

Re: battery cut out switch
I've seen that type before Tom. Older redone shoebox Ford, may be old school.

Re: battery cut out switch
My local Autozone carries the knife type switch and they have them listed online for $24.99.
