Actually, it should not have a shutoff. Most are wired directly to the batteries. That way the charger will work any time that you are connected to shore power.

My Magnum cannot be turned off and will drain the battery to 50 percent in a month. Therefore I added a shutoff switch.

x2 on a shutoff. great for storage as well as maintenance to the batteries or inverter... less exciting that just pulling the fuse / cable and getting that nice arc when you install it again as the capacitors recharge.

I am putting a shutoff in because it is easier to turn a knob than having sparks

I'm a little late to this thread but the switch is the ONLY way to roll.

My Magnum is mounted upside down from the factory and works just fine.
