ZOZOMOTORS Side Post Remote Battery Disconnect Switch 12V 200A/1000A Solid-State with Key Fob

This compact solid-state relay is engineered for vehicles with GM-style side post batteries and other threaded stud or hole terminals. It combines a remote key fob with a built-in receiver to let you safely disconnect the negative battery feed without lifting the hood. Rated for 200 amps continuous and 1000 amps peak crank, it’s designed to handle starting loads while consuming only milliamps to power its receiver.

How will this switch protect my battery when a vehicle sits unused?

By interrupting the battery’s negative connection, the switch prevents parasitic drains from accessories, alarms, and modules that slowly deplete charge. Use the remote to open the circuit when storing the vehicle or when long periods of inactivity are expected.

• Reduces parasitic draw that causes flat batteries
• Easy remote activation—no hood access required
• Solid-state relay with low standby current (0.001–0.005 A)
• Suitable for cars, trucks, RVs, ATVs, boats, motorcycles

Will it handle starting the engine in cold weather?

Yes—the relay is rated 200A continuous with a 1000A crank capacity, giving it sufficient surge current to start most 12V engines, including under cold cranking conditions. The high-quality internal components extend service life over typical mechanical relays.

• 200A continuous current rating for everyday electrical loads
• 1000A crank rating for engine starts and surge demands
• Solid-state design lasts 3–4 times longer than ordinary relays
• Built-in remote receiver minimizes external wiring needs

How is the switch installed and what’s included?

The kit ships with a relay assembly, wiring harness, hardware and a side post adapter so you can attach it to GM-style terminals or threaded stud/hole battery posts. A detailed wiring diagram and instructions are provided to guide a recommended negative-side installation, though positive-side mounting is also an option.

• Includes two preprogrammed remotes, 2 AWG connection wire, copper bars, and mounting hardware
• Red/black wires power the receiver and must go to battery + and − respectively
• One stud connects to battery negative, the other to vehicle negative feed
• Flexible wiring helps fit tight engine compartments

Are there any practical cautions I should know?

Because this device severs battery power directly, electronics that maintain settings or memory (like radios, clocks, or onboard computers) will lose stored data when disconnected. Also, certain state regulations or smog testing procedures may require the battery to remain connected for a period before inspection.

• Stored settings (radio presets, ECU memory) may reset when disconnected
• California users: keep battery connected for several days before smog tests
• Follow wiring diagram to avoid improper polarity or loose connections
• Recommended installation by a qualified technician if unsure

Who is this for? This ZOZOMOTORS remote battery disconnect is aimed at vehicle owners who want a reliable way to stop battery drain and add a theft-deterrent cutoff without frequent hood access—ideal for seasonal vehicles, fleet units, recreational vehicles, and anyone seeking a durable, high-current remote kill switch for 12V systems.
