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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow will this switch protect my battery when a vehicle sits unused?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces parasitic draw that causes flat batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEasy remote activation—no hood access required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid-state relay with low standby current (0.001–0.005 A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for cars, trucks, RVs, ATVs, boats, motorcycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it handle starting the engine in cold weather?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes—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.
