I found a type at Checker Auto that appeals to me because it could be installed somewhere inside the trailer so you could disconnect the battery without getting outside in the battery box. It would help I'm sure to keep the battery from being drained when sitting for longer periods of time. As it is now I disconnect the wire from the battery terminal each time I want to disconnect the 12v power to the trailer. In looking at where the power enters the trailer (a 1972 Silver Streak Continental Deluxe Rocket) there appears to be a small panel screwed on the front/bottom of the belly pan. I have no idea where it goes after that. I have not tried to take the panel off yet to see what's behind. (I'm a little timid about messing with the belly pan). I would like to know if anyone knows where the line would run after that or really any information about such an operation. I did buy a switch at Camping World that you can mount on the top of the battery but it doesn't fit my batteries terminals which are bigger than normal and it sticks up so far that you can't close the lid on the battery box, plus it's still going outside to disconnect. Any feedback would be appreciated. chrisb ------------------------------ End of Silver Streak Digest V1 #94 ********************************** ----------------------------------------------------------------- When replying to a message, please delete all unnecessary Digest text To unsubscribe or change to an e-mail format, please go to http://www.tompatterson.com/Silverstreak/List/listoffice.html
