Winch disconnect install.
Hey all, not sure if anybody has similar concerns but as a former yacht electrician, I tend to be over cautious with electrical items. I recently purchased a mount plate and winch for my new to me '15 JKU willys.
I chose a rock hard mount and the Q-tech stealth winch. I want a bumper later but this got me the winch on for now. I also bought the Q-tech battery buss bars. Decent quality but I had to shave a little here and there to make them sit perfect for the most contact.
My concern, (perhaps unfounded) was the high amp unprotected wire, so I installed a marine disconnect switch for safety. Again, other my think I'm nuts but I wanted to share how it worked out for me.

This looks great, i've been thinking about doing something like this but couldn't seem to fit that switch under there. Do you have more pictures from the install? Also what type of connection is that on your battery?
