Wow, you switch off the 12 side of the inverter!  I was only going 
to add a remote switch to the inverter's on/off switch.

I was just going to find the wire from the converter to the house 
battery and interupt it with a 30 amp 12V relay from Radio Shack.  
then, hopefully just wire it to the inverter's remote on/off 
switch.  It depends on the voltage in the circuit.  It might require 
a second relay.
