[TR] Kill Switch or a Cut-off Switch

[Geo & Kathleen Hahn]

I think the switch you mention is designed to take the full load of the 
battery and thus will need cables of comparable gauge to the battery cables 
(can't recall if those are 4 gauge or 6 gauge).  You may also want the cable 
run to be as short as practical which likely has you mounting the switch on 
the cockpit side of the firewall.
