Looking for a Dual-System PV Disconnect Solution

My first project was a solar cart (all electronics on-board), and my second system is somewhat larger but not in a rollaround cart. Both systems can be charged from the same panels (just not at the same time, of course). What I need, if such a beast exists, is a PV disconnect switch that can route PV power to more than one system (e.g., "A" -> "OFF" -> "B"). Anyone seen such a thing -- or have a different solution?

Thanks!
 
2 DC breakers can do the job. You just have to turn off the "On" one first and then turn the "Off" one on. Teh PV is jumpered between the line side of both breakers as below.

That's easy enough to do. Thanks for the suggestion!
