Expert Reply:
We don't have anything to be a power selector quite like what you are describing. We have the isolation solenoid # PK5231201 that will only allow power to flow in one direction so the second battery cannot drain the first which a simple switch can be added to. The other option is to have two batteries run completely separate and use the Epicord Battery Disconnect Switch with Key - 50 Amp # 277-000096 on each one. This will isolate the on/off power of each battery, but what is connected to each one will remain connected and not be powered by the other battery.
We have the ability to run two completely individual, one main and one slave, or parallel. We do not have the ability to run parallel and also isolate individual batteries.
