You may be able to run a reversing contactor.

This is an advanced modification. I know Roady89 has done it. I wouldn't suggest you try it without some pretty good electriconics background knowledge...

You have to use a reversing contactor. Its not THAT advanced. You need a on/off/on rocker and the contactor. I used an EZGO PDS F/R rocker switch switch from MMT's.

Heres a controller version, you'll have to figure out the resistor cart. Its all in the F/R so its not much different

That must be a healthy contactor.

Chevy, I believe this is along the same lines that Rabbit did with his.

I believe what you ar looking for is amperage around 1000 - 1200 not voltage! Voltagage is only used to activate ~ Amperage is what passes thru the suka... and you are wanting to dump a 9 pack of 8v ?

I think what you are looking for is solenoid with 6 posts that will handle 1000+ Amps
