Emergency Start Button - Connects both Battery banks

Howdy, I am thinking about changing my emergency start swtich from the stock momentary type to a single pole, single throw, switch with a hinged cover. Want to have the option to draw from the engine...

Winnebago uses a spdt mom-off-on switch for that- the 2 outer terminals are power feeds, one (momentary) coming from the coach battery, the other (latched on) from an ignition switched source. This way the single solenoid is used for both emergency and battery charging, but the ignition must be on for charging.
