 Posted: Mon Jan 25, 2021 12:26 pm Post subject: Manual Battery Switch |
 |
|
Any recommendations for a reliable single pole manual battery switch
that would replace a traditional battery contactor? This is for a rotax
so starting current is relatively modest. There are lots of them listed
on Amazon, ebay, and automotive suppliers but all of them seem to have
complaints of falling apart or failing to work after a short time. I
would like to mount it on the engine side of the firewall and arrange
mechanical linkage to operable it from inside the cabin.
thanks
Ken

There are no doubt some excellent choices
out there but one that I'm familiar with
is Cole-Hersee products. Check out this

out of that stuff?"

Hi Ken Not cheap but I'm using a Flaming River FR1013 on the starboard headrest of Rotax 914 powered Europa. Battery is in rear. I looked at a number of switches, even bought some and didn't like the looks of them, not robust enough. I'm not flying yet but do like the looks of the Flaming River. They sell a number of battery disconnect switches:
