I posted a few pics of a recent altimeter bay. It has 5 switches in total with three of them related to the staging (power, "open" and shunt). I like using separate switches because I can close the "open" switch and then hear continuity from the altimeter (which sort of indicates that the altimeter is working properly), and then open the shunt.
I think I'll give the WiFi switch a try. One question is whether to use it as the "open" switch to complete the circuit or as the shunt. I know using it for the "open" switch is more intuitive, but using it as a shunt might be even better. Hmm.

Thanks. That's what I was looking for. But now I feel pretty intimidated by the complexity. There's going to be lots of testing this winter.
