inertia switch for AC55/DMOC with pack inside cabin

My EV is a minivan. I've taken out the back row of seats so I have one large battery box sitting behind the seats. The HV cables go down through the floor and run underneath along the centre of the van to the engine bay. My main fuse is in the battery box.

I have an AC55 and DMOC. It doesn't seem useful to put an always-on contactor on the pack and connect the coil to an inertia switch, because I can reduce HV connections and still cut the motor by having the inertia switch in series with the aux 12v power to the motor controller.

Any thoughts?

Hi madder, thanks for the confirmation. I'll keep an eye out for the prius pedal. There are a lot of them here now so should be able to get one.

borneo....the place where nothing runs on DC and it's very difficult to get parts. I like the weather and the people though :)
