    Default which Perko?

    I'm discovering that there are a few different Perko switches. Which one is the way to go for two amps and the usual accessories?

    I would go with the 1, 2, All, Off version

    I went with an automatic relay. No need to fiddle with a switch, or worry about my kids turning it off when the boat is running. Plus it is more efficient than an isolator.

    Just something to consider.

    I'm in the no perko camp! I had an isolator on the previous boat and no intervention required. They installed a perko on the LSV and i can't stand it, always forgetting to switch between batts. I'm removing it and installing a regular so i don't have to mess with it!

    so a regular isolator instead of a perko?

    I'd look into relays vs isolators. This is a decent read. There is a ton of other info out there.
