I am after some ideas for a main DC 12v high amperage switch for RV.
Currently most high amperage switches in our model of vans (5th wheeler) are fitted under the sleeping bed, be it a double bed or single bed.
If a problem occurs we have to remove stuff off the bed then lift it up to turn the switch off. No spare cupboard space in our van to put cables etc. solar power comes in from the roof then down the back of the fridge then into the battery section under the bed.

My idea, if anything is available to have a remote switch. Heavy duty switch under bed close to the batteries and the control switch in the electrical control cupboard above kitchen sink.

Any ideas or recommendations.
 
Some manual switches could be routed to mount on a surface or have its knob through the cabinet.

Midnite solar makes remote trip battery breakers as do others like outback and schneider.
