Switch for solar panel circuit
I am planning a solar installation and want to include a switch in the #10 or #8 wire between solar panels and controller (2x100w, 24 foot round-trip panels to batteries; yes, fused). Most marine switches seem to have pretty flimsy terminal screws for #8 wire. Conversely, an on/off battery switch seems like overkill, What do others use?
