I purchased a Sabvoton controller with the LCD screen - apparently the LCD version does not come in the ignition lead to the controller. Id like to use a key switch to toggle electrical power to the ebike. Key in off position - no electrical power. Key on = power on. I was going to use the BMS for this, but my BMS does not have a hard on/off switch either.
The main circuit will carry peak ~200A @ Nominal 72V.
Relays in this range appear to be hundreds of dollars.
I believe a contactor can also serve this purpose but, again, one with the right specs cost many $$$$
What is the best-practice solution for toggling the main power circuit using a key ignition switch?
