So I just bought a PC680 and am wondering about mounting. I know you can mount it on its side and I was going to do that in the original battery tray. Anyone have pictures of what you did? Also needing pictures of different quick disconnects and how you mounted those.

Thanks

you need to wire the switch to the positive side and the alternator must be wired to the battery side of the switch. all other power to the car goes to the switched side. this will make the switch an emergency power cut off shutting the engine and all other power to the car.

Oh, I like that solution. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) As far as being too much wiring, I think most of the wires that hook up separately to the battery (i.e. not the main red cable) would go on one side and then on the other side of the switch a cable then running directly to that post where all the others came off. Just check and make sure which one goes to the alternator. The main heavy one should go to your starter.
