I bought some 150 amp that are used in eletric golfcarts and was just wondering if they last or burn out.
The point of using the solenoid was not having to rember to switch the battery when we are shut down with the tunes going and lights on. Turn the key off and it switches to the house batteries only so no more dead cranking batteries
I think some are referring to a manual switch.

You want a battery combiner, thats what they are made to do. Fully automatic. Check out Blue Seas.

Blue seas stuff looks good. Regular old starter type solenoids will burn out quickly if left on more than temporarily, i have tried it, no luck.
