Ground Interruptor Device

Does anyone know where I can get one just like this Groundus Interruptus device?

A large auto parts store may have the style in your photo.

The same stores above may carry the type with the green knob. Rotate CW to connect, CCW to disconnect. I know that Harbor Freight does.

I have the green knob one, it does not fit in my car due to clearance issues. I am looking for the other one in the picture. Kragen and Pepboys does not have it

Griot's version may have a bypass fuse holder installed and a higher price tag as befits their glossy 4-color catalog. This maintains operation of the radio presets and alarm system with the knob fully CCW. This would be more for an "anti-theft" device. If there's a short in the system or if the vehicle is stored for a time, current can still leak to ground via the parallel fuse.

The Harbor Freight version doesn't have one, but a fuse holder could be installed if needed. The basic unit is only a few bucks.
