I am considering using a battery cutt-off switch.
I have used the one made by Griots and Hella Racing one. Both have a "key" or knob that you twist and all power is cutt off.

This has worked on my "68 SL Mercedes and '85 BMW like a charm. In one case the car was not started for 18 months (busy yr.!), and started on first crank ( i use Sears Die-Hards religiously $75).
Is there any issue with using these. Is there an electronic board/memory or engine/fuel/traction-stability managment system that will go haywire if you keep cutting power?
On my BMW the only issue was the Radio digital memory and clock/computer. It has Electronic Bosch fuel-injection, never an issue.
Thanks; 1O days till Delivery!
