Ray,
I've got one in my shed somewhere if you want one I advertised in the quokka two weeks ago for $20, most phoned up asking what it was. I went for an automated system and did away with the switch. Good and bad bits, simple and robust, down sides, you have to run heavy duty cables everywhere, if you forget you can flatten the wrong battery or forget to charge one. If you turn the switch to "both" and one battery is flat as a tack you will flatten both in a poofteenth of a minute. I had the system on my GQ for years, it works well for what it is, personally I would go for the automated way.
As I said if you want to give it a go I'm in Perth, mention a small renueration and it's yours to play with.

Hi Martyn. I am interested in your Hersee switch. I live in Ravenswood. If you can give me your address and a time to pick it up that would be fine and a cost. Please send your address via e-mail for privacy.
Thank you
Ray Bates

Ray they are a very good quality product, at the $ mentioned I would be jumping at it, as if you don't I bet some one will as they are worth a few $$ more than that.

I think they are available at ARB dealerships, I know where they are in some Perth suburbs, they also sell Rotronics gear.

Everyone I know who has had one of these now uses the cole hursey solenoid or a redarc solenoid, simply because everyone of them has at least once forgotten to turn it on, or turn it off, or turn it over etc;

Now you know someone that doesnt. ii have used solonoids for my personal vehicles and work vehicles and come to the conclusion they are crap. I have sufferea few flat batterys coz with a solonoid the first you know you have a stuffed battery is when it has flattened your good one. The vehicle I have now had a solonoid until they saw the light and went to something more reliable

Any quality marine supply shop will have them, as they are installed on every commercial vessel I have ever worked on. They are simple , robust and reliable.
