            Could I splice a separate on/off switch between the battery and the board?  A project I am working on will require the robot control board to be contained inside a modified Robonova torso, and not very easily accessible.  This will make it difficult to turn the robot on and off since the power button is on the board.
If I could wire in a separate battery switch, I could put it in a convenient location.
I am no electrician so I could use some advice.
Would one of these products work without frying the board?
