    If you are talking about the on off on switch that controls the source to the meter, it does not have to be a high amp switch. The meter uses very little amperage.

    On your diagram, can I put a 6.2v zener where you have the switch and it would quit draining the batteries when idle if the voltage on the lipo gets below 6.2v? Specs on the mosfet? All the higher amp mosfets I look at have a 10v gate.

    I am really happy with all my lipo pack mods. Even with similar mAh, the high C lipo packs give at least twice the vaping time than the cylindrical cells. Me thinks the mAh ratings on many round cells are exaggerated.:)
