Howard,
Use the Carling switch of your choice and remote mount one of these:

They're also available in modified reset where you have to cycle the switch.
Hope this helps.
John

The guy beside me figures he has it all OK.
(1) he has a secret spot back behind the cockpit about =BE of the way up
the fuselage (where no magnetic field matters) where he slides his hand
up)
on mounting the wing. On his hand is secreted a magnetic ring. Inside
sits a
magnetic slide release which permits the door handle to open.
(2) He uses a racing car emergency cut-off switch (to close the battery
circuit) which sits on the firewall.
He cut a 1/2inch hole up in the corner of the instru panel
which permits entry of a wooden rod that emulates the switch key.He
figures
nobody will have the nouse to work out the system, and all he needs is
an 8=94
wooden rod and a magnetic ring,
I dunno
Ferg.

The crowbar ov protection technique is somewhat predicated
on FAST breakers . . . like the miniature Klixon/Mechanical Products
devices popular in aircraft. The likelihood of this device
ever being called upon to do its job is small. Consider a plain-
vanilla switch combined with a 5A fuse in a fuse holder. Since
this device will only have to work while on the ground, having
a box of spare fuses taped to the inside of the fuselage for
spares does not present a big operational/maintenance issue.
Alternatively, a miniature breaker on a bracket, readily accessible
on the ground combined the plain-vanilla switch is another
option that does not ignore original design goals for
the crowbar style protection system.
The automotive breakers cited earlier are REALLY slow . . .
