1. Battery cut-of switch (score: 1): Author: "Ken Waringa" <kwaringa@dynsys.com>; Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 12:46:12 -0600; It seems I may have started something by asking which leg to put the switch in. There have been numerous responses saying to put it in one leg or the other, but I haven't seen anything explaining why; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00329.html (7,867 bytes)

Radio presets in an all electronic new model will be lost with a cut-off switch on either side of the battery. Next problem. Bill; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00330.html (8,846 bytes)

Re: Battery cut-of switch (score: 1): Author: Ajhsys@aol.com; Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 14:30:54 EST; << If you have a radio with presets, you will loose them when you turn the switch off, just like disconnecting the battery. The way to avoid this is to wire your radio directly to the battery (with a; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00331.html (8,269 bytes)

Since this is something that is getting stuck into the car, the ground side would be safer, as the exposed terminals will not b; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00337.html (8,019 bytes)

7. Re: Battery cut-of switch (score: 1): Author: James Nazarian Jr <James.Nazarian@Colorado.EDU>; Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 15:24:33 -0700 (MST); I disagree. I would want it on the hot side to cut off power. Part of spec for the placement of the switch in race cars is that it must be close to the battery. This, I beleive, is to cut off power t; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00341.html (8,886 bytes)
8. Re: Battery cut-of switch (score: 1): Author: Gonaj@aol.com; Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 17:28:34 EST; Yes, this is convention but if you put in a switch at the battery you will cut off all power unless someone has wired that radio circuit directly to the battery. This is very unlikely. George; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00342.html (7,642 bytes)
9. Re: Battery cut-of switch (score: 1): Author: Gonaj@aol.com; Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 17:43:45 EST; Any EE wil tell you that convention is to switch the hot not the ground or neutral. Yes, I know that Lucas has been guilty of switching ground in some cases but "that don't make it right". When disco; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00344.html (7,935 bytes)

Re: Battery cut-of switch (score: 1): Author: Max Heim <mvheim@studiolimage.com>; Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 15:34:20 -0800; Hmmmm... by that logic, you would always disconnect the "hot" battery cable when working on your engine. Tried that once (wasn't thinking clearly), and my wrench touched the rim of the battery well w; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00345.html (9,918 bytes)

Re: Battery cut-of switch (score: 1): Author: James Nazarian Jr <James.Nazarian@Colorado.EDU>; Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2000 16:38:40 -0700 (MST); I have always disconnected + side of battery (on - ground car) when working. I don't know though. To some of the racers: do any of the class rules specify where the switch is (+,-)? I suppose that in; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00347.html (10,868 bytes)

This is somewhere where hopefully you can learn from the mistakes of others. I once welded a perfectly good wrench to a Mini race car. This i; /html/mgs/2000-02/msg00349.html (13,563 bytes)
