Review on ๐Ÿ”‘ DTLgear Universal Outboard Kill Switch Keys - 11 Guarded Keys with Lanyard - 60-Inch Length by Tim Knoepfle

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Almost as described

I bought this station wagon because reviews of the engine kill straps advertised for my 3.5hp Tohatsu Long Shaft commented that the kill switch plug is too thin to be effective. Combined with positive reviews, I took this as an indication that the thickness was on the verge of tolerance on all motors. This cable definitely has connectors that match the derailleur, there are probably 2 or 3 in the set that will work. I'll probably cut off the ones I don't need (and keep them as spares in case I run into someone who lost their kill switch lanyard) and move on without worrying about the motor cutting out. The twisted cable itself seems good. The clip is plastic but has been replaced so no problem.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Fits
