Johnny Utah I suggest looking up “flix trix” or finger bikes.

Here in Melbourne Australia, myself and a lot of others that I am in a club with, build RC model sailing and steam boats and have put magnetic reed switches in our boats as it is easier to get to and can be built into a deck fitting or hatch of some sort..

A functional full size spare mount shutoff would be cool. A base that mounts to the bed, then the "key" part you pull out has the hex mount and stud for you to bolt whatever wheel and tire combo you want to it, that way it kills 2 birds with 1 stone. Also a full size tire would be harder to misplace...

I'm working on a hybrid of those two, a magnetic cover that turns on a reed switch (small magnetic switch) that in turn controls a relay to cut the power, that way even if the cover magnet moves a bit, the magnetic field is strong enough so that the reed switch will stay "on". Will put the design on thingiverse once i'm satisfied with the results.

Couldn't you just use your esc external switch pos and neg (if indeed your esc has one, like Hobbywing etc) as that's not in the main power circuit from esc to battery.... You could effectively use anything down to a 2amp rating. So this design is basically a plate 'switch' yes?? So in respect... Does not have an max amp rating as such...as its simply bridging the circuit by means of a small steel plate..? Quite clever really.... Simple... But effective. I still think its a tad overpriced...

Once you cut the ground, in a DC circuit, the hot side ain't hot no mo'. It's got potential but no current. Drop a wrench across that and any grounded point, though, and you will get current out the wazoo, all of it, because that will dead short your battery and turn it into a model boat anchor. Myself, I'd cut the red wire, just for that reason.

I guess I'm too in the dark ages still, as I only use deans on my rigs. Think all the other plugs are too bulky and comes in colors that don't match my vehicles at all. Down side, they are pain to take apart in the cold, rain etc. I live in Norway, and we have similar weather as Canada. As I type, I got nearly 3ft og snow outside, so I can't play with my rigs at all. Also thinking of make my own variant of the deadman switch, cause I'm out of funds and have the parts in my spare bin.
