Looking for a battery disconnect switch
I have a 2017 Z06 with the Z07 pkg.
I store my car in a condo underground without electrical outlet, so cannot use the battery tender that comes with the car
For now when storing, I just disconnect the battery and leave the battery in the car, no problems
My previous corvettes, I have always had a battery disconnect switch attached to the negative and just turned a dial when going to not be using the car for extended time, so as to not drain the battery.
I am having trouble finding a disconnect switch that can be used on the 2017 Z06 because of location of battery and negative terminal ( close to edge of battery compartment)
Does anyone with a car similar to mine use a disconnect switch and if so can you send me pics and product info
I have bought 2 disconnect switches, without luck so far
Yes , I know I can always just disconnect the battery with a wrench, but just so much easier to just reach in and turn a dial
Any info would help
Thank you

Mount this to the board or cover above the battery. This is the same thing that NHRA requires on most cars. Better yet, mount it somewhere that can easily be accessed because once the switch is off, the trunk release won't work unless you do it manually with your key. That, or run a long extension cord to the basement, lol.
