Why do you need a kill switch when you could just pull the plug?

Very nice! I like that idea of a quick foot-operated kill switch.

You can now add a warning buzzer to go along with the LED circuit. It'll
automatically sound off if either of your solenoids gets stuck. My web page
has all the information you'll need to build one yourself, or you can get a
kit from Cal Posthuma. See the link below.
