I'm beginning to think I might have to do a bit of relay work but I was wondering if anyone knew of a site that sells those type of large toggle switches that goes off-on-on. Most are on-off-on you see.

The other is logging toggle switches where you pull the switch to release, move it and then release it again to unlock. Like this...

Not sure about your Battery switch but here's a millspec locking toggle on ebay.  You should also be able to get locking toggles from local hobby electronics stores as I did here in Aus, but they are a bit flimsy compared to the above.

I've figured out how to sort out the battery switch... They sell On-On-On switches... :D Found some locking switches at the same place so I got a twofer... Same as that ebay item but a quarter of the price.

John, where did you get the locking switches?  I'd be interested in a couple myself.

Cheers,

I found a bunch of locking switches but this is the closest I could find that looked like the one I was after...
