I've got a slow drain in my battery. My guess is that it's from the 911 dash installed by a previous owner. After about a week, the car may or may not start. Is anyone out there using a battery cut off switch? There are a lot for sale, but many look similar and several have some bad reviews.
Thanks |

I've always used a lever type battery terminal clamp to be able to quickly disconnect the battery. I usually only use it on one lead to break the circuit. I've used the lead style ones over the years but on the most recent installation use this steel style. I was skeptical but ffor 3+ years its been working fine.
 quick connect terminal I don't like the disconnects shown in post #2 because they are too tall and frequently cause clearance issues. |
