Those are available up to 100 amps capacity or so, and they resemble a Ford type starter solenoid. The difference is that they're designed to stay engaged for hours at a time. Use about 3-5 amps from the ACC terminal to power the relay, and feed a separate bus bar or fuse panel for high current accessories. That's the fix I used to protect headlight switches on big rigs with dozens of clearance lights. Jerry
