Man hobbies are often spendy addictions!

So I'm thinking away on my killswitch. The switch built into the brake lever is "closed" (no current) when the brake lever is in the neutral position. When the brake lever is pressed down, the switch goes into the "open" position allowing current to flow freely.

I want to incorperate this into the bike as a saftey feature. I was thinking I would use a relay of some sort so when the brake lever is applied, it cuts pos voltage to the servo tester. I could also cut power to the battery leads into the battery. Just one 12v line off one of the batteries would do it. Either way the controller would have to re-arm, but I can live with that.

Is there an easy way to do this?
